UK, USA and Australia government websites indicate that visitors to India should exercise a high degree of caution overall due to the threat of terrorism and crime and the risk of civil unrest. Higher levels apply in some areas and there have been a number of recent (September 2024) bomb threats at airports and on flights to and from India.
The UK Foreign Office website says terrorist attacks have mainly targeted Indian government interests. Security has been strengthened, including at major hotels and transport hubs. However, terrorist attacks could be indiscriminate, including in places visited by foreign nationals.
Although piracy has not so far affected India’s territorial waters, it poses a significant threat in parts of the Indian Ocean. Mariners should follow shipping industry guidelines on precautions to take.

If carrying weapons on board ships in Indian territorial waters, you must follow Indian laws and regulations.
It is advisable to consult a travel advice website for advice on the latest security situation.
