Croatia visa processing time from Coimbatore
We haven't seen a new Croatia visa passport dispatched from VFS Coimbatore since 25 Sept 2026, so we can't say how long applications are taking right now. See all of India or compare centres.

Anyone waiting for a Schengen visa from India who wants to see how fast the embassies are returning passports. We show overall progress from courier data. We can't show the decision or status of your own application; for that, use VFS tracking or contact the embassy.
From BlueDart's public tracking. VFS sends passports back by BlueDart, and each shipment carries the applicant's VFS reference number, which follows a fixed pattern (country, city, application date and serial). We check references in that pattern on BlueDart's tracking page several times a day, so every passport listed here is a real, dispatched shipment. You can check any of them yourself with "Verify on BlueDart".
Several times a day. Croatia updates at 11:30 AM, 6 PM, 12 AM and 3:30 AM IST, Tuesday to Saturday. Most new dispatches appear after midnight, when the courier picks up the day's passports. Couriers don't pick up passports at weekends, so on Sunday it updates only at 6 PM and on Monday not at all; Monday's passports appear from 12 AM that night.
Usually because the day isn't over: most of a day's passports appear in the 12 AM update, after the courier picks them up. Some days really are quiet, for example around a holiday or when the embassy sends fewer passports back. If your own passport was dispatched and still isn't here the next morning, tell us with your reference number.
It's the latest application date for which about 70% of a typical day's passports have been dispatched. Some people who applied on or before that date are still waiting, so it isn't a cutoff.
Your reference number contains your application date. For example, NLDBLR170826004901 means Netherlands (NLD), Bangalore (BLR), applied 17 Aug 2026 (170826), serial 0049, first person on the file (01). Under "By application date", tap your date's bar to see every passport dispatched from that day. Switch to Boxes to see which serial numbers haven't been seen yet.
Each box is one application, numbered by the 4 digits after the date in the reference number. Green means at least one passport on it has been dispatched. "Not seen yet" is a number below the highest one dispatched that we haven't seen: that application may still be with the embassy, collected in person, withdrawn, or the number may never have been used. "Possible on a busy day" (dashed) is a number above the highest one seen, up to how many applications the centre takes on a busy day, so it may not exist at all.
The embassy doesn't work strictly in date order, and each day's applications go out over several weeks. So later dates moving doesn't mean yours was skipped. See what applicants found →
In calendar days, weekends and holidays included, from the day you applied at VFS. Under the EU visa rules the embassy should decide within 15 days, and can take up to 45 in individual cases. Applicants report that embassies rarely answer questions about an application before day 45. Answers from applicants at the 45-day mark →
Usually, yes. Many applicants see EES turn OK a day or two before VFS or the courier shows anything. Check with dates inside your planned trip: outside your visa's dates it shows Not OK even when you have one.
Not on its own. Applicants here have received approved visas while EES still showed Not OK, and others saw it turn OK only the day after their passport was dispatched. The decision is in your passport, so wait for it. Read what applicants saw with EES →
It depends where you collect it. Passports collected in person at VFS Delhi never go by courier, so they can't show up here. If you collect at another centre, your passport is sent there by courier, so it usually shows up.
It happens rarely, usually when the courier record is missing or late. If that's you, with your reference number and we'll look into it.
No. VisaTrackr is an independent, free tool. We're not connected to VFS Global, any embassy or any courier company.

🙌 Helpers of the week (10–17 Oct) Thank you to the people who took time to help others this week: 1. Krish walked Rushil through the EES check step by step: which dates to enter, where the passport number goes, and what OK can and can't tell you View comment → 2. HK shared the Dutch embassy's phone number and how the call works once 45 days have passed: they raise a signal, and you call again if nothing comes within 10 days View comment → 3. random_pelican shared the NetherlandsWorldwide number, and that they can't do anything before 45 calendar days View comment → 4. Aayush kept Swiss applicants posted: EES turned OK one day, and the passport was dispatched the next View comment → 5. DS got a Swiss visa while EES still said NOT OK, a reminder that NOT OK doesn't always mean a refusal View comment → 6. NM came back with a full timeline: a multi-entry visa after 46 days, no email from VFS, and a reminder that waits close to 45 days are normal right now View comment → 7. SD found that EES showed NOT OK with no dates entered, and OK once the arrival date was filled in View comment → 8. Divya explained that you can email VFS to switch from courier to self-collection (about ₹850), which is usually faster View comment → 9. daisy told a worried group that she applied on 4 Sep from VFS Mumbai with no travel history, and got her visa on 3 Oct View comment → When you're anxious about your passport, a reply from someone who's been through it means a lot. 🙏
Applied to Netherlands visa from Chennai on 10 September reached embassy on 14. Journey date was 10 October then postponed to 29 October. Still not sure if passport would turn up before that 😅
Hello! Today (Thursday) was my VFS appointment for France visa (New Delhi), what is the expected timeline for my file to reach the embassy? My travel date is 12th Nov, will I hear back from them by then?
Do you have any travel history before?
Nope

Is it a tourist visa? Did your travel date pass before receiving passport?
Yes i applied for short stay / tourist/ student visa , no my dates are ik jan2027
A frustrating journey has come to an end after 30 days for a business visa!! The longest VISA processing time I have ever witnessed.. Hope Netherlands will rectify this in future... BTW thank you @VisaTracker team for the platform...
Submission date - 1st Oct for Netherlands ,from Bengaluru, If I want to withdraw my passport for urgent other country travel, how many days does it take for it to come back to me ? Also if anyone has done it , if you can share the procedure , really appreciate it !
A friend of mine had to withdraw his passport for similar reasons, so he emailed the embassy. He got a response the next business day and got his passport back within 5-6 days.
Hi Netherlands - ViSA My family submitted application at VFS on 10th of September and it reached Delhi on 14th of September and their travel date is Oct 22nd we still didn't receive the update - status remains same application has been dispatched to dutch embassy in new Delhi and your application will be further processed at ministry of foreign affairs in Netherlands. Should I calculate total days from time of application submission at VFS or from time it reached Delhi
I have calculated from time it reached embassy, new delhi. It took exact 25 days.
I have submitted in 30th September I see the number past my application is already being dispatched via Bluedart but mine is still showing dispatched to Dutch embassy New Delhi.
Yeah I applied on 9th September yet there is no update!! It shows the same status till now
Any difference in processing times for business/tourism visa from New Delhi?
Why applications submit through jalandhar vfs taking long vfs work is just to forward documents to embassy not decision making ,then why the wait is long for Jalandhar
Oh kolkata.... Show some mercy to France applications. 21 days passed.
What does it mean when the EES turns from NOT OK to OK?! Does it mean they’re processing our application? No message from bludart and no email from VFS either. I’m not sure what the change in status from NOT OK to OK means…pls advice.
Ideally it means, that your passport is valid for entering the Schengen area for the dates you have checked. Means the visa is approved. But in the same site it says we should not rely on this information alone for visa decision. It is not 100% accurate still. There are some cases (very few) it shows OK and visa was not granted.
I applied for my Netherlands Schengen visa at VFS Delhi on 16 September 2026, and my application reached the Embassy on 17 September 2026. However, I have not received any updates on my application so far, and my intended travel date of 25 October 2026 has already nearby. Could you please let me know the current status of my application and advise me on what I should do next?
Visa applied for netherlands from bangalore on 2nd of August, still no update...anything that i can do, other than waiting?
sorry application date is September 2nd.
travel date was 6th of October have pushed it to 15th of october.
Any idea what time of the day the message appears about the processing of the visa through vfs?
Evening
After 6 pm
Hi all, I've applied for Netherlands visa from Pune on 15th October. VFS tracking says dispatched to Dutch embassy till now. I am new to this, any information regarding tracking would help. Thanks!
Had submitted my application on 28th aug for Netherlands and today finally I got back my passport with the visa stamped. Haven't checked the EES status as of now. Thanks to this place as it helped me know that I wasn't the only one who was worried. Its just the system and the processing which is slow. All the best to everyone who have been waiting for their visas.
that is great!
I applied for a Netherlands visa on 25 August, and my VFS status still says: "Your application has been dispatched to the Dutch Embassy in New Delhi and will be processed accordingly." My travel date is 9 October. Since the status has not changed, does this mean I may not receive my passport before then? I also saw that 33 applications from 25 August were dispatched yesterday. Is there still a chance that my passport could be dispatched today?
I booked via Makemytrip, the cancellation is 17k per head and reschedule is 7k+difference in fare. It's difficult to decide. If not this Oct, I may recshedule to Nov during Deepavali
Same no update yet..applied on 14th sept
Looking for suggestions - I applied on 2nd September, it still says under process and on here, it says "not seen yet". But does that mean that the embassy hasn't looked at our file yet? My box isn't green. My travel date is 10th September. Today is 9th. Does it make sense to wait to see the verdict or should I shift the travel date to next week (19th). Would I even get it then? How likely is rejection for a frequent traveller with no prior rejections or issues?
Hi Divya, not seen yet means that we have not seen your reference on Bluedart. 10th is tomorrow and if you haven't got message from VFS you should think of rescheduling. You can wait till midnight.
If you have flights booked, check the change/cancellation policy first. If changes must be made 24 hours before departure, I'd move the dates now. If you can modify closer to departure, you could wait until around 12:15 AM to see if your passport is dispatched and check your EES status. If you're able to travel later without major impact, moving the dates is the safer option.
Applied on 23 sept VFS Mumbai. By when can I expect? travel mid nov

Croatia visa processing from Coimbatore
Croatia, the newest Schengen member, tends to have longer processing times from India. Dubrovnik, Split, and the Adriatic coast are the main draws for Indian tourists. As a newer Schengen entrant, processing patterns are still establishing — expect longer waits compared to more established Schengen countries.
Croatia Schengen Visa Processing Time from Coimbatore, India
We've seen 15 passports returned from VFS Coimbatore since 11 Aug 2026, 2% of all the Croatia passports we track. The latest dispatch we saw was on 25 Sept 2026, and the newest application date with a passport out is 31 Aug 2026.
Every number here comes from BlueDart courier dispatches: when the embassy finishes an application, the passport goes back through BlueDart, and we check those shipments several times a day.
