Indians planning their summer travel to Europe are likely to get visas in lesser time this year. VFS Global, a visa service provider, says it expects faster visa appointments and processing as client governments have deployed additional staff to handle the surge in applications.
"The Swiss have given us 25% more appointments. Also, earlier, their appointments would be concentrated in two-three months, now they have spread the appointments across the entire year. Austria has indicated that it wants to increase appointments and have a quicker turnaround time," Vishal Jairath, the south Asia head of VFS Global, told Mint.
