Indian passport holders in the US or Canada on work permits, student visas or as permanent residents require visitor visas for Europe and now face lengthy processing unlike American or Canadian citizens. While Europe is a favoured destination for Indians, visa backlogs can thwart travel plans. Non-resident Indians encounter the same delays, even if applying remotely. According to Sonali Mehendale of Tours R Us, timelines depend on the specific embassy. Unlike citizens, non-citizen Indians abroad still require tourist visas for Europe. In summary, non-resident Indians in the US and Canada confront extra visa hurdles to visit Europe compared to citizens, causing holdups for vacations.
