New Indian visa centre opens in Dhanmondi

The Indian High Commission in Dhaka will launch a new Indian Visa Application Centre (IVAC) facility point at Dhanmondi tomorrow.

State Bank of India (SBI), the authorised agent of the High Commission of India for accepting Indian visa applications through the IVAC, will receive and delivery visa applications from the new IVAC, said an Indian visa advisory note.

All IVACs receive all categories of visa applications.

The IVAC facilities are now available in Gulshan, Motijheel and Dhanmondi (new) in Dhaka, and in Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna and Rajshahi.

While submitting visa applications, applicants are advised to select the correct category of visa they wish to apply for.

Applicants should ensure that all documentation is genuine, complete and accurate. Applicants are advised to be vigilant about agents and middlemen and to report all such cases to the nearest police station/law enforcement authority.

A special counter for Medical Emergency Visas is available at IVAC, Gulshan. Medical emergency visa applications may be deposited on a walk-in basis at IVAC Gulshan, Dhaka even without an appointment date.
