Bonsoir from Peshawar,

All the luck.

It takes takes around plus minus a week to Indian visa in Islamablad.

Do not worry the Indians are quite generous in grantting visas to tourists. It normally takes 7working days. It depends on your luck as mentioned above some TTers on this forum got it in two days.
Best of luck.

Yeah.

Yes they are pretty generous in issuing the visas to tourists.
Good luck.

It is true.

Fingers crossed.

well I have to say that the Indian high commission isn't being as generous as everyone here makes out or as generous as they used to be perhaps.

I am going to be applying for mine in about a week and the 20 or so people I have talked to who have got their India visa in the last month have said it is easy to get but hard to negotiate a long stay or more than a single entry.

If you are happy with 3 months single entry then no dramas but if you want 6 month m-entry you may have to negotiate hard. Most people have only been able to get double or triple entry but could get 6 months.

10 days seems to be the norm at the moment for British/Europeans. You put in the application and passport, get your receipt so you're free to travel around, then come back after 10 days for collection.
