How do I find out the status of my application?

We advise you to apply for your visa at least 6-8 weeks before the date you plan to travel.

Processing times can vary depending on the type and complexity of the application. During busy periods such as the summer months or in the months leading to Christmas, the time can be longer. Sometimes it can take longer to check out all aspects of an application. The Visa Office works hard to ensure all visa applications are processed as quickly as possible, but you should ensure that you have allowed sufficient time for your visa application to be processed before your date of travel.

If you have not received your decision within the processing timeframe, please contact the Visa Office. Please note that you will have to provide your online application number.
