Agents for India Tourist Visa

Post by skubendr » Wed Oct 28, 2009 10:40 pm

Sorry, if I posted this in a wrong forum.

I have recently got British Passport and consequently surrendered India passport and got the Surrender Certificate.

Can anyone suggest a good VISA agent in London to get a India Tourist Visa.

Why not apply directly to the Indian Embassy in London and cut out the extortionate agent fees?

I think you mean VFS (http://in.vfsglobal.co.uk/), as you can't apply to Indian Embassy any more.

I am preferring VISA agent instead of VFS, as I think I can save waiting time and also can contact the VISA agent easily if any questions. To contact VFS you need to call very expensive 090 number.

Well if you want to pay an agent more then that's up to you and i can't see it taking a month to issue an Indian visa to someone with a UK passport.

ok.. by waiting time, I mean time waiting in queue etc., in VFS office for submitting the VISA documents

I am not worried about processing time, as I have a month before I travel.
