Once an interview is conducted with the applicant on the date and time of the appointment and the completed and duly signed form is submitted at the Consulate , a document package will be prepared by the Consulate. An official letter from the Consulate, addressed to NSIA, will be included in the package. The Consulate will send the scanned copies of the document package to NSIA copied to Consular Affairs Directorate of MoFA. The original package will be returned to the applicant on the same day. The applicant should send the original package to her/his representative or relative in Afghanistan, whose details are included in the application form, for further assessment and processing. After this, the file is closed at the Consulate and requires NO further follow up.
If the applicant fulfils all the requirements and is deemed entitled for a Tazkira by NSIA, he/she will be issued an Afghan Tazkira in absentia by NSIA. Applicant’s representative or relative, mentioned in the application form, can collect the original Tazkira from NSIA, Afghanistan (NOT from the Consulate). Please note that this process requires a long waiting period and depends on the follow up of the applicant’s representative or relative with the NSIA. The Consulate has no control and influence on the process within NSIA .
