The Haryana Registration and Regulation of Travel Agents Act, 2025, establishes a mandatory registration framework for travel agents operating within Haryana. It regulates entities involved in visa processing, ticketing, and travel consultancy for tourism, study, or medical purposes, while explicitly excluding employment-related emigration governed by the Central Emigration Act, 1983. The Act empowers authorities to monitor agents, investigate malpractice, and penalize activities such as human smuggling, forgery, or operating without a license. It provides mechanisms for consumer grievance redressal via an Ombudsman and ensures accountability through strict penalties, including imprisonment and fines, to protect citizens from fraudulent travel practices.
