Is the Limited 1 Year Apple Warranty International? For example, if I buy an iPad from the US, and there is an issue with it somewhere else, for example, India, and I take it to an authorized distributor in India will they provide me with a warranty service?
Here is a link to the iPad warranty (the other link is for computers):

This portion is a bit confusing:
IMPORTANT RESTRICTION FOR iPHONE, iPAD, APPLE TV and HOMEPOD SERVICE.
Apple may restrict warranty service for iPhone, iPad, Apple TV and HomePod to the country where Apple or its Authorized Distributors originally sold the device.
I am referring to the word "may" which gives Apple a choice of offering warranty service - or not.

Yes, it is international. However, this is the clause regarding international service:
"Apple reserves the right to change the method by which Apple may provide warranty service to you, and your Apple Product's eligibility to receive a particular method of service. Service will be limited to the options available in the country where service is requested. Service options, parts availability and response times may vary according to country. You may be responsible for shipping and handling charges if the Apple Product cannot be serviced in the country it is in. If you seek service in a country that is not the country of purchase, you will comply with all applicable import and export laws and regulations and be responsible for all custom duties, V.A.T. and other associated taxes and charges. For international service, Apple may repair or replace products and parts with comparable products and parts that comply with local standards."

No.
There is no international warranty.
Service may be limited to the country of purchase.
With ipads that are wifi only, this shouldn't be an issue.
