This information is for general guidance only. Meeting the requirements does not guarantee your application will be approved.
Processing times vary by nationality, visa type and the security or administrative review applied to an application. Some applications clear quickly, while others require additional review and take considerably longer.
Because timings are not fixed and can change with the situation on the ground, apply well ahead of travel and confirm expected timescales with the mission handling your case.
