Consular & Visa Matters
► Visa processing time: All visa applicants are strongly advised to apply at least 5-10 working days in advance of their anticipated travel, especially during holiday seasons. Approved applicants will be told when they may pick up their passports.
► Applicants should not purchase plane tickets or make irrevocable travel plans before obtaining a visa. In some cases, visa applications requiring special processing can take several weeks but on average, the Consular Section attempts to make visas ready within 2 working day; however, applicants must not wait until the last moment to apply. The Embassy reserves the rights to decide on the length of time to process each visa application.
► The Consular Section is not able to provide same-day visa service.
