Longer waiting times during summer months (15 June – 15 August)

Due to the volume of visa and passport applications during the summer months, please be informed that there can be long waiting times for appointments and longer processing times. We recommend you schedule your appointment online accordingly. You cannot make an appointment by phone or by email. Please always be on time for your scheduled appointment, but no earlier than 15 minutes before the appointment. If you arrive too late we cannot assist you in view of the high workload.
