Consejos de llegada a Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport

International flights arrive at Terminal 2. Foreign nationals must submit India's online e-Arrival Card within 72 hours before landing, and travelers on an e-Visa have their fingerprints and photo taken at the immigration counter, so expect queues at busy times.

After immigration, collect your bags in the baggage hall and pass through customs into the arrivals area. Domestic arrivals at Terminal 1 go straight to the baggage belts and out to the forecourt.

At Terminal 2, follow the signs to the ground transportation hub on Level 1, where you find the taxi and Uber and Ola pickup areas, the multi-level car park and bus gates. Prepaid taxis are booked at the official counter. Pre-booked drivers wait in the arrivals area outside the exit. Do not accept offers from people approaching you outside the arrivals hall.

Mumbai is warm and humid all year, with heavy monsoon rain from June to September. The city runs on India Standard Time (UTC+5:30), and the currency is the Indian rupee.
