For visa applicants who have an appointment:
We recommend that visa applicants who have an appointment arrive at our office no earlier than fifteen minutes before the visa appointment. Applicants coming too much ahead of time crowd the road.
Applicants are encouraged to bring with them only those documents required in support of the visa applications. Examples of items not permitted on our premises are: cameras, torches, smoking items, electronic items, sharp instruments and briefcases.
We also recommend that persons escorting visa applicants who have an appointment to be kept to a minimum as the road around our office gets crowded.
