Hi all

Q: I have been informed that a visitors visa can be 45 days or 90 days. However my question is, who decides how many days the visa is? (Specifically for a wife)

Can an individual make a request?

Does the employer request ?

Is it down to the ministry to decide?

Regards

The number of days are requested in the online application. There is a field in there. Ministry usually doesn't alter the days. They just approve or disapprove the application.

Do note that visit visas can be renewed recursively to max 9 months.
