Slovenia visa processing time from Delhi: about 26 days right now
Slovenia visas from VFS Delhi are taking about 26 days right now. Most passports from applications made on 23 Sept 2026 are now out. People who applied 1½ to 3 months ago waited about 15 days (median), 9 in 10 within 16 days.
Based on 135 passports we've seen dispatched by BlueDart · Updated
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. Slovenia 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.

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. 🙏
I applied on 6th october 2026, I have to attend a conference on November 17th in Netherlands. Will I be able to get my visa by then?
Hi, what conference are you attending? I am also traveling to attend a conference in Netherlands. Applied for visa on 21st September, no update as of yet.
If the lag time reduces by this week then you can take chance of waiting which i doubt as again tomorrow embassy is not working. Or you can withdraw and apply from other Schengen country with less lag time. May be France or Germany.
I got my visa for 60 days single entry applied on 9 th sept from ccu. EES status is not worked for me as it still showing not ok. I guess ees only help when your trip date is very near or it givw positive sign before dispatch but dont take it as negative sign at all
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
After how long does the passport get dispatched once the EES turns okay?
What was your application date?
Did you opt for courier? I somehow feel people who opted for additional services are getting a response, but people who didn't have zero updates. Like I applied on 11 sep, and it's dead silence since then
Finally got the refusal and the wait is over after waiting 50 days the result was very disappointed
Was it a tourist visa ? And did you add other countries in the itinerary?
For Netherlands that a tourist visa yes I add other Schengen States in the itenary not Australia i applied seprate application to save the time
Yesterday my passport country VFS , after 21 days, what result expact
Applied in Bangalore VFS on 8th October for a family of 4. Still the status is under process at Embassy of Switzerland in India. How long will it take?
12-18 calendars days on average
I applied for a tourist visa for Switzerland on 28th September, reached embassy on 30th. By when do you think i can receive the approval? I linked the tourist visa with that of my husband's short term work visa. Travel date 17th October.
As per the standard timelines, you should receive it by 20th. But it can get to you quicker too! Hoping for the best!
Dispatched from VFS Delhi today, so hopefully will receive it tomorrow. Really close call.
5 of us applied on 4 September and our travel is on 4 October night. Our status is still showing that the application is under processing, and we are extremely worried because of the 2 October holiday and the weekend. Been speaking with Embassy in New Delhi and VFS, but both are of no use. Suggest how to proceed
Finally only one of our passports got dispatched through bluedart on 14th Sep, rest 4 applications no progress yet, but ESS shows OKAY for us and for the passport that got dispatched today too.
@VisaTrackr Got my passport delivered now to my house. My serial number is 23 from 4 Sep applications, but strangely not updated anywhere yet, neither here nor on the VFS website, only ESS turned okay
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
Hi everyone application date - 28th September, EES change to ok on 13th October. Got passport today with approved visa for 90 days. Thank a lot to @visatrackr for this portal. Thanks everyone and best wishes for your visa..
Still awaiting 14rh September updates. Applied from kolkata
Oh kolkata.... Show some mercy to France applications. 21 days passed.
Guys did anyone vfs status changed today?
Did it change for anyone?
Not yet for me at least. 7th sep batch. Flight on 16th oct.
Hi Applied for Netherlands Schengen on 16th Sep from Blr. Travel planned for 17th Oct. With onward travel to US on 22nd Oct. Since I could not miss the us trip requested for passport withdrawal at vfs blr 2 days back. It was dispatched yesterday as per the tracker. Though EES is not Ok, hoping that the visa is issued. Wish me luck 🍀
Hi Aditi best wishes for your visa.
@Aditi , I have my trip planned to japan on 29th , pls let me know the withdrawal process?
I have had two Schengen visas before [both this year, one for work (March) and the other for tourism (July)]. I applied for a Netherlands visa on September 28, 2026, for work travel scheduled to begin on October 25, 2026, from Delhi, as I have been here for some time. I have an H-1 B, a job in the US, and Canadian PR, so I was hoping the process would be seamless, given my travel history. Unfortunately, there has been radio silence since my application. Any idea what could be the holdup?
Not sure but i believe that very early applications either are the straightforward rejects or maybe the orange carpet
Hi KD as per my observations they are not processing application in orders. I also have valid b1/b2 and canada visitor visa. I have also applied on September 28. Waiting for the response.
I applied netherlands visa on sep 15th banglore. No update so far. Anyone who applied on 15th received?
Finally got bluedart dispatch message. Shipment out for delivery. No email from vfs or the embassy. Day 41. This has been a ride.
Can you tell me the procedure to check EES?
what was ur application date?
Anyone got mail or ees update related to visa dispatch today?
How can you track through EES? Can someone please guide me?
Checked on VFS site around 5 pm but there is no email yet
🙌 Helpers of the week (3–10 Oct) Thank you to the people who took time to help others this week: 1. am read the dispatch graphs for a business applicant and explained that new Swiss applications are taking about 12–15 working days View comment → 2. TT showed Divya where to check EES on the official EU page, and what OK and NOT OK mean View comment → 3. Ha came back with a full Swiss timeline: in transit, ready for pickup at 3 PM, visa approved while EES still said NOT OK View comment → 4. daisy shared that her EES turned OK the morning after her passport was sent, and the visa was approved View comment → 5. Vikas confirmed a multi-entry visa arrived while EES still showed NOT OK View comment → 6. Divya went to VFS Delhi in person and reported back: the embassy doesn't see applicants, and VFS can only help withdraw View comment → 7. DJ gave calm, practical advice on moving a flight: check the change policy first, then watch the 12:15 AM update View comment → When you're anxious about your passport, a reply from someone who's been through it means a lot. 🙏

Slovenia visa processing from Delhi
Slovenia is a smaller Schengen destination that processes Indian visa applications efficiently. Ljubljana and Lake Bled are popular tourist spots. Lower application volumes typically mean faster processing compared to the major Schengen countries.
Slovenia Schengen Visa Processing Time from Delhi, India
Applications at VFS Delhi are waiting about 26 days right now, 2 days more than the Slovenia average across India (24 days). That makes it number 5, counting from the quickest, of the 8 Slovenia centres with enough recent data. We've seen 135 passports returned from VFS Delhi since 26 Jun 2026, 25% of all the Slovenia passports we track. Most of them left on Wednesdays and Thursdays. The latest dispatch we saw was on 6 Oct 2026, and the newest application date with a passport out is 23 Sept 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.
