Hello @Trippylens Wanted to ask u, do we need to submit the other forms (medical form, radiological form, etc…) present on the website along with the Visa application form ? Also in the application form, did u ask for multiple entries or they just gave u, i wish to visit lesotho also thats why Thanks in advance

No you don’t need to submit any medical form for short term tourist visa. I didn’t give any preference. You can select multiple entry on the application form but it’s upto them to decide.

*MY VISA STORY* So I have been living in South Africa for 1 year now, but I came to India to renew my Study VISA, and I applied for it on 18th July 2023, I also had my return ticket on 22nd August (As mostly it used to take 15-20 days for Study VISA in Mumbai). July passed, August passed, September passed. No sign of any VISA. I've tried everything, Letter, E-mail, Phone Calls, tried contacting every agent on the planet seeking help if they know anyone in the consulate. Zero help! I ended up losing my career, have been paying rent for my house and car for no reason for so long. Let alone the flight tickets. My whole career has been jeopardized. And, right now I'm just sitting in India, trapped, suffocated waking up every morning in a hope to go back to SA. I feel like Jaadu from Koi Mil Gaya. And now I've been seeking a psychiatrist's help. SA embassy has done this to me. And that's my story.

Hi. I requested for an NOC from my employer, and I got a digitally generated NOC with HR Head’s digital signature. This is a standard procedure they follow for any employee seeking an NOC for visa. It has all the details that should be mentioned in the NOC. So, I went ahead & submitted the same along with my 3-month salary slips. Will this be accepted or does it have to be stamped and signed manually? I’m a little worried now.
