Myanmar visa rules for Indian passport holders
As of 2026, the visa situation for Myanmar is complex due to the political situation following the 2021 military coup. Indian passport holders require a visa to enter Myanmar. An e-Visa has historically been available, but its availability and processing reliability have been affected by the political situation. Travellers are strongly advised to check the current status of Myanmar's e-Visa system and any Indian government travel advisories before booking. The Myanmar Embassy in New Delhi handles visa applications. See the FlightGPT visas page for the latest entry requirements and any advisories in force.
Yangon airport and getting to the city
Yangon International Airport (RGN) is located about 19 km north of Yangon city centre. No rail link exists between the airport and city — taxis and ride-hailing apps (Grab is available in Yangon) are the main transport options. Airport taxis operate on a fixed-rate system; the fare to central Yangon is approximately USD 8–12 and the journey takes 30–50 minutes depending on traffic. On departure from Mumbai, all international flights leave from Terminal 2 (T2) at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport. Book your Yangon accommodation in advance, as the city's hotel supply has been variable in recent years.
When to travel and book for Mumbai–Yangon
Myanmar's dry and cool season from November to February is the most popular for tourism, with comfortable temperatures (25–30°C) and minimal rainfall in Yangon. The monsoon season (June–October) brings heavy rain and some flooding. Fares from Mumbai to Yangon tend to be slightly lower during the monsoon off-season for tourism. Given the current situation in Myanmar, travel advisories and entry requirements can shift quickly — always check before booking and consider purchasing comprehensive travel insurance. Book flights flexibly (refundable or changeable) given the ongoing political uncertainty.
Baggage and booking considerations
Thai Airways economy fares to Yangon typically include 20–30 kg of checked baggage. Singapore Airlines includes 23–25 kg. When booking a Mumbai–Bangkok–Yangon journey on separate tickets, baggage rules apply per sector, and you will need to collect and re-check bags in Bangkok if the tickets are not interlined. Booking on a single itinerary (e.g., Thai Airways BOM–BKK–RGN) is much simpler and protects connection time. Travel insurance is particularly important for Myanmar travel given the changing political context.
Yangon's top attractions for Indian travellers
Yangon's crown jewel is the Shwedagon Pagoda — a gilded stupa rising 98 metres and surrounded by hundreds of smaller shrines, considered one of Buddhism's most sacred sites. The Sule Pagoda in the city centre and the reclining Chaukhtatgyi Buddha (65 metres long) are equally impressive. Yangon's colonial-era architecture in the downtown grid is remarkably intact — guided walking tours reveal Edwardian and Art Deco buildings from the British period. Indian travellers will also find cultural familiarity in Yangon's Little India district (around Mahabandoola Garden Street), home to Indian-origin temples, restaurants, and textile shops dating to the 19th century.
