The British Deputy High Commission in Chennai has processed 18,170 applications
from Kerala in 2005 alone. The number of applications rose to 18,877 in
2006.
The Visa Facilitation Service offers smooth processing of applications,
providing advice and guidance when required. Most of the applications
come from students, visitors and work permit holders.
