Accra (Greater Accra) 13 April '99 The British High Commission in Accra on Tuesday asked travellers to the United Kingdom to lodge their visa applications at least six to eight weeks before the day they wish to travel as the visa section approaches its busiest period. A news release in Accra said all visa applications would be dealt with as quickly as possible. However, past experience shows that the period between May and September would be extremely busy. It said the visa section of the High Commission is open to the public from 0745 to 1045 hours on weekdays, excluding public holidays. The High Commission advised the public to familiarise themselves with supporting documents required for their particular category of trip and ensure that they obtain a valid passport, complete a visa application form and produce copies of the necessary supporting documentation before submitting their applications.
