Rome appointment wait time

[holeqbo1]

Hi All!

I want to apply for a standard visitor UK Visa from Italy. Since they changed from TLS to VFS, there is only one centre for biometrics in Rome. I wanted to know if anyone is aware of the current waiting time for appointments. I am waiting on some confirmation from my HR before I complete the application but I want to know how long the whole process might take. My estimated date of travel is 1st week of June https://xender.vip/.

Any help is appreciated. Cheers!

Hello,

Applying for a UK visa can be a bit of a process, but I can help you with some information. The waiting time for appointments at the VFS center in Rome can vary, but it's generally recommended to book your appointment as soon as possible to avoid any delays. According to the UK government website, the processing time for a standard visitor visa is usually around 3 weeks from the date of your appointment.

Since your estimated date of travel is the first week of June, it would be wise to complete your application and book your appointment soon after you receive confirmation from your HR. This will give you enough time to go through the process without any last-minute stress.
