Hi

Once the yellow slip has been issued, how many working days does it take before it is activated, and appears on the system at the embassy.

The UK visa agents have said up to 4 Saudi working days.

Also, is there any way in which one can check??

Regards

Hi,
I will say it will take more than 4 days, maybe up to one week even 10 days, but nothing set in stone... As far as I know,the only way to track it is by calling the Saudi embassy at your country.

Hi

From the UK, there were additional few days, due to medical and then legalisation of medical at the foreign cultural office (FCO)

Did your wife not require medical?
