Can I get an Indian Visa in London (UK) if I'm a Canadian Passport holder?

Question

Can I get an Indian Visa in London (UK) if I'm a Canadian Passport holder?

I have been told yesterday that I have to be in Chennai August 23 2008. I didn't know about this earlier, so I didn't apply for my visa. Plus, I'm leaving to London (UK) in 3 days (July 18, 2008) so I can't apply for my visa here since it won't be done within 3 days and I need my passport in order to fly.

So, is it possible for me to get my visa in London (UK) at the Indian Consulate holding a Canadian passport? Or will there be difficulties? Also, what may be the estimated processing time?

I'm:

21, University Student, Never flown to India or Asia before, my last trip was when I was 6 years old to London UK. Also I'm a Sri Lankan but born in Dubai, U.A.E. I do not hold dual citizenship or a Sri Lankan passport.

Thanks in Advance

Answer 1

Yes, you should apply to one of the outsourcing companies in London that the Indian High Commission works with for visa applications. See link below.

The process only takes a few days.
