Visa C Marriage Timeline + Processing Time

Dear,


My fiancée applied for a Visa C for marriage on 21/09/22. It was registered 23/09/22 (info on the website to track visa progress.

In the meantime we have not received any further news except the confirmation that they received the diplomatic post (email received from infodesk on 08/11/22).

I was wondering if there are people who applied for this visa type recently (like in the last 6 months) and if they received their visa yet. The embassy we applied at is the Belgian embassy in Moscow.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, I applied at the end of August. In my case for the total process was 3,5 months.

Applied 30 August

Registered 28 October

Additional document requested 9 December

Submitted the document 12 December

Approved 15 December


During the process I didn't get any updates or emails only that additional document, when I tracked in 9 December

@VisaCMarriage hi can you share your final timeline? Did they ask you for additional documents ? When did they finally approved?

I have few questions since you got a quick response, maybe you can help..

have you already had a schengen visa ? I think that helps with faster response.

Also which embassy did you apply at? Was it via VFS?

Lastly do you mind sharing your full  timeline with the exact date you received the approval?
