IVFRT for Indian Visa in Guyana

Oct 25, 2019 Letters

DEAR EDITOR,

The High Commission of India in Georgetown (Guyana) has introduced Biometrics and Immigration Visa Foreigner Registration Tracking (IVFRT) system for Indian Visa in Guyana. The High Commission will switch-over to Online Visa Application Filing for visa applicants with effect from 1 November 2019. Manually filled-in visa applications will no longer be accepted.
Biometric Data collection, including fingerprint data and facial imagery will be a mandatory requirement for all type of visa applicants. As a result, all visa applicants will need to first apply online and, thereafter, be physically present (mandatorily) at High Commission of India, Georgetown for submission of visa application and biometric data enrolment, as per detailed instructions below.
(i) Before coming to the High Commission of India, Georgetown, to submit the passport and visa applications, all visa applicants must complete the Online Visa Application Registration Form available on Website: http://indianvisaonline.gov.in/visa/
(ii) Please ensure that all columns are filled in completely and correctly. The visa application will not be registered by the system unless the application form is completed properly.
(iii) While downloading the Visa Application Registration Form from Website, a Temporary Application ID will be created by the system. This must be noted down by the applicants for future references. The application form has four pages. Please continue to the next page(s) by clicking on ‘Save and Continue’ until the last page of the form. After completing the form correctly, please click on ‘Verified and Continue’. Upon clicking this, the form will be registered in the system and a dialogue box with the applicant’s name and file number will appear. Click on ‘PRINT FORM’ on this dialogue box. Take a print out of the two page application form. Paste (not staple) one photograph (size 2 x 2 cm.) of the applicant on the space provided and clip with the application two more copies of the same photograph.
(iv) The printed form should be submitted physically at the High Commission on the next day or subsequent days along with: (a) Passport, (b) Additional photographs, (c) Fees, (d) Other documentation required for the type of visa applied for, and any other relevant supporting documents. For information on types of visa, documentation required, etc., please visit the High Commission’s Website: www.hcigeorgetown.org
(v) Visa applicants resident in St. Kitts & Nevis, Antigua & Barbuda and Anguilla should submit the printed application form along with passport, fees and other documents to the High Commission of India, Georgetown.
(vi) The fees, in full, must be paid by the applicants at the time of submission of the application form and passport at the High Commission. Visa fees, once paid, will not be refunded.
(vii) The visa application will further be processed by the High Commission officials and visa will be granted/refused subject to necessary clearances from the Indian authorities concerned.
(viii) While, in the normal course, visas will be issued within 48 hours of the submission of the application form and fees at the High Commission in respect of nationals of Guyana, St. Kitts & Nevis, Antigua and Barbuda and Anguilla, in the case of foreigners residing in these countries applying to the High Commission in Guyana will be issued visas only after clearance from the Indian Mission in the country of nationality of the applicant and subject to clearance from other Indian authorities concerned.
