After obtaining the degree, they have to apply online at the Embassy in time when the visa expires, while in person at the Afghan Embassy in Delhi after the validity of the passport expires. Recommendation for extension of validity is possible from Kabul or Dubai, which is likely to take one to two months. University Bonafide Certificate is also required to be attached with these applications.

Students told that bank account and mobile sim card are also associated with our passport and visa.
