Guide to uploading documents to the visa online form

In order to apply for a visa, foreign nationals need to fill in the online visa application form and print the Visa Request Form Receipt (RER). The Embassy  will only accept applications in which the required documents have been uploaded. See bellow some tips on how to upload the required documentation:

1. The current version of the online visa application form performs better in the internet browser Mozilla Firefox.
2. When accessing the form, should your browser display a message saying the ‘connection is untrusted’ or not secure, please disregard it – it is safe. Add the exception in order to be able to proceed (‘Add Exception’ > ‘Confirm Security Exception’).

4. In order to be able to upload files to the form, you must enable pop-ups on your browser. Go to your browser’s preferences to disable blocked pop-ups.
5. 
6. When you reach the Upload tab of the form, notice there are ‘choose file’ buttons for both the photo and the signature, but not for the scanned documents. Always make sure your files comply with the specifications below before starting to complete the form.
7. 
8. Once a document is selected from the drop-down menu, a dialogue box should open for you to select the file location. If pop-ups are blocked, the dialogue box will not open, and you will not be able to select the file you would like to upload. Make sure pop-ups are unblocked.

10. As there is limited upload capacity – maximum of approximately 2Mb – make sure you upload as many files from the list of required documents as possible. Remember to submit all original documents at the Embassy during your appointment.
