The processing time is calculated in business days, excludes
weekends and the day of order. It refers to how long it will
take us to obtain your visa once we have received your
documents and lodged your application with the Belarus
Consulate. We will lodge your application the next consular
working day after we have received all the application
paperwork provided that all documents are in order. The due
dates indicated on the order form account for UK and Belarus
public holidays. However please note that the Belarus
consulate may experience delays when issuing the visas
usually shortly after their holiday period is over. The
delays may occur due to other reasons as well, such as high
volumes or technical issues. For that matter, the visa due
dates are only provisional and by no means definitive. In
any event, we do not recommend booking your flight or make
other travel arrangements until you have got your passport
and visa with you.
The Belarus consulate is closed on Wednesdays and
does not accept lodgements or collections, so if we
receive your application on a Tuesday it will be lodged
on Thursday.
The day we receive your visa from the Consulate we will send
it to you by Royal Mail Special Delivery, so you will have
it the next business day before 1pm, or optionally hold it
at our office for your collection.
