Collection:Passports can be collected between 1630 hrs and
1730 hrs only. Please check the status of your passport before coming to the
VAC through our online tracking service, call center or by availing the
optional SMS service while submitting your application to avoid any
inconvenience. Applicants who require their passports before the normal
collection time due to travel or any emergency, they need to show the travel
evidence in order to get the passports before the collection timings.
For straightforward applications the Embassy aims to make a decision within 24
hrs and decisions on these will generally be available for collection from the
VAC from 1630 hrs on the working day after you submit your application.
Non-straightforward applications may take up to 15 working days. As a general
rule applications for anything other than a visit visa, and those from
applicants who have not visited the UK before will be non-straightforward and
are likely to take longer than 24 hours.

Above timings will change during Ramadan:

Passport collection: 1500 hrs to 1600 Hrs only from Sunday to Thursday.
Note: Passports are usually available for collection after 4:30 pm on
the day following submission. But the Embassy may take longer to deal with some
applications so we recommend that you confirm with us that your passport is
back with us before you come to the VAC to collect. You can do this either by
telephone or using our online tracking facility.
The VAC can get very crowded at peak collection time. Alternatively you can
save a second visit to the VAC and use our courier return service. Please ask
at the desk when you submit your application.
