Indian Visa Delays Hit British Tourists

India’s High Commission is enforcing rules that require in-person visa applications for British citizens — a move that has caught out many in the travel industry. Previously it turned a blind eye to visas that were being processed in batches, according to one specialist tour operator. But on Oct. 7 the High Commission in the UK stated applicants must attend visa centers in person, as it had noticed “unauthorized agents and individuals are illegally charging fees and collecting India visa applications for submission at VFS Centres, misleading applicants and misrepresenting the services they can legally provide.” [caption id="attachment_529034" align="alignnone" width="538"] Source:
