Frequently Asked Questions

ONLINE APPLICATION FORMS

Can I fill in my visa application in a language other than English?
No. At Present our online application system only supports applications made in English.

Will I be able to access the online application system using my computer?
We are doing our best to support as many computers, operating systems and internet browsers as possible but due to the technologies we use for our online application system, there are certain browsers we exclude due to their age or design. Currently our site is tested at IE 5.0 or later and Mozilla Firefox 3.5 or later.

Can I save my application mid-way through the application process?
Yes. You can save your online visa application wherever you see the "Save & Exit" icon. To login again and complete your application, you will require your unique "Visa Application Id". This number will have been sent to the email address that you supplied in your application security details. Please note:

• Online forms in progress that are saved are deleted after 7 days. You can return within 7 days.
• Online forms are valid for 7 days from the day you submit it. We cannot accept application forms after this 7 days period, as the data expires and is deleted. You will be asked to complete a new application if you try to submit an expired application form to a visa application centre.
