FAQ
Common Tourist Guide License questions
Does the Ministry of Tourism issue every local guide licence?
No. Public Ministry answers say local guide licensing is handled by State/UT administrations, while the IITF/IITG programme creates certified tourist facilitators/guides through an online platform. Always verify the current authority.
Why include heritage and tourist-service cases?
Guide readiness is more than portal compliance. A guide must interpret sites accurately, manage visitor expectations, handle safety and complaints, respect monuments and protect local communities.
What should be verified before guiding tourists?
Verify certification/licence scope, police or document verification status, badge or ID, site entry rules, monument restrictions, itinerary facts, emergency contacts and language or specialization claims.
