What to do if I can’t get a Norway Schengen visa appointment in New Delhi?

When it comes to consulates of popular countries like Norway, they get booked two to three months in advance a lot of the times. But don’t get disheartened. There are many ways you can work around this.

Try a consulate with a different jurisdiction

If there are many Norwegian consulates in your country, you can just try booking an appointment with another consulate. For eg., try booking an appointment with the Norwegian consulate in Mumbai in case the one in New Delhi is booked.

But this always works with a varying possibility as appointments will be subject to availability.

Change your main destination

Instead of trying your luck with the Norwegian consulates, see if you can apply for your visa in other consulates. Countries like Norway, France, Switzerland, and Italy have a very high inflow of tourists every year. And there are also countries like Malta, Slovakia, Luxembourg, and Iceland that don’t have a very high inflow of tourists every year.

So, why not try getting an appointment with the Slovakian consulate? You just need to show them a tentative travel plan to get your visa application approved. Once you have your visa, you can use it to go anywhere in the 26 Schengen states.

We can help you get a temporary travel plan as well. You can just mention that your main destination is actually Slovakia and that you’ll only spend a few days in Norway.

You can understand this better on our article on what to do when you can’t find an appointment slot.

Wait until another appointment gets cancelled

It is agreeable that you think that this is risky because there are chances that you’ll end up waiting indefinitely. But there have been many times when tourists were able to find appointments with this method. So don’t always disregard this completely.

To be able to get an appointment this way, you’ll need to have multiple tabs open and keep a keen watch like a hawk. This can be a tedious task, so if you want help with this, Travel Visa Bookings can help you out. Just fill in the Schengen visa appointment form and raise a request.
