Slovenia visa processing time from Chandigarh: about 14 days right now
Slovenia visas from VFS Chandigarh are taking about 14 days right now. Most passports from applications made on 5 Oct 2026 are now out. People who applied 1½ to 3 months ago waited about 9 days (median), 9 in 10 within 15 days.
Based on 32 passports we've seen dispatched by BlueDart, only 20 of them old enough to count, so treat it as a rough guide · 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. 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 😅
I have been to Europe twice and my husband far too many times but this never happened. It's taking Netherlands 30 odd days to respond. Austria Schengen came in 15 days. I was so sure, I had booked non refundable KLM flights and now with just 2 days left, I cannot do anything. This is extremely frustrating.
My husband and I submitted our visa applications in Mumbai on 11th September, and this is the first time we’ve experienced such an unreasonable delay despite having travelled twice before. We are now past the fifth week since submitting our applications, with absolutely no update, and our travel date of 16th October has already passed. Processing applications within the promised timeframe should be basic, especially when we pay for the service without any guarantee of a return.
Passport is on the way to VFS Bengaluru since Friday noon (Swiss), where I will collect it! But my reference number below in this site is grayed out!! Is this expected for VFS collection?!! 👀👀
Applied on 17 th Aug in Bangalore no updates yet
Not sure how they are processing the Visa.. my flight is today and i ll hv to cancel it.. applied on 25th aug..
Any update ?
Hey folks did anyone vfa or ees visa dispatch status changed today?
Folks anyone?
My application date was 4th September and I have not gotten any update
Yesterday my passport country VFS , after 21 days, what result expact
No Netherlands dispatches yet tonight (14 Oct) Our 11:30 PM and midnight checks found no Netherlands passports dispatched on 14 Oct, in any city. It isn't the tracker: tonight's checks found Germany (534), Switzerland (237), Austria (77) and France (34) passports dispatched on 14 Oct as usual. On most nights Netherlands passports show up on Blue Dart between about 10:45 PM and 1 AM, so they may just be late. We'll check again after the 1 AM run and update here. If nothing comes by morning, it means the embassy sent no passports back to VFS on 14 Oct.
Can they take their jobs any less seriously
Update, 1 AM: the 1 AM run is done. Only 2 Netherlands passports were dispatched on 14 Oct (1 Delhi, 1 Mumbai), against the usual 200–400 a day. So it looks like the embassy sent almost none back to VFS today. The tracker is working fine. Tomorrow evening's run will show the next batch.
Thanks Visatrackr because of you I had a track of my application timeline throughout. God bless you! For everyone's knowledge - my application date was 31st August received my passport back with visa today 14th October. Total processing days - 44 days.
I also just got my passport with visa ( multi entry ,90days) I got the same befor also but to my surprise it took in total 46 days . That’s a lot . So all of you pls keep in mind that it is normal to get the decision dragged to 45 days. Mind you this is not the peak season. Thank you all for the help and the information . TLYK I havnt gotten any email via VFS regarding the visa dispatch.
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.
Any change in the vfs application status for today? Anyone?
Can see that my passport is dispatched now but EES still shows “Not Ok”, rejected? Anyone had similar experience?
Can you share your application date?
16th Sept
Why no dispatches today?
We applied at VFS chennai for italy visa, tourist C type on 14th september, thats 27-28 days. when can we expect?

Hi , My passport dispatched yesterday but in blue dart I am getting this status.Load On Hold;Space Constraint In Net Veh Can anyone let me know what does this means . Also will be there a delay
Hi i applied for italy type c work pemit on 17 sep at Jalandhar when i can recieve a update?
Hi, we're an independent tracker, not VFS or the embassy, so we can't check individual applications. A few 17 Sep passports were dispatched from Jalandhar on 8 Oct, but most passports going out right now were applied in July, so many applications are taking around 10 weeks. For your own file, please check with VFS. Hope it comes soon!
Will the visa still be issued if the travel date has passed? Do they ask for updated flight and hotel reservations?
they still issue it, in most cases they don't ask for new details
Has anyone's status got updated?
Aslam whats your coupon Number?
NLD/BLR/310826/0024

Slovenia visa processing from Chandigarh
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 Chandigarh, India
Applications at VFS Chandigarh are waiting about 14 days right now, 10 days less than the Slovenia average across India (24 days). That makes it number 3, counting from the quickest, of the 8 Slovenia centres with enough recent data. We've seen 32 passports returned from VFS Chandigarh since 22 Jul 2026, 6% of all the Slovenia passports we track. Most of them left on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. The latest dispatch we saw was on 16 Oct 2026, and the newest application date with a passport out is 5 Oct 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.
