Just got an update that passport is ready for dispatch, any idea how long it would take for them to dispatch and deliver?

When i spoke to BLS they said i should receive it between 48-72 hours.

Thanks.

u can just book premium lounge. u can just go the very next as slots r always available in it. louneg charges include photo & courier costs. no bank draft needed. will have to pa by debit. plus u just need to carry ur originals. rest all is their headache including form filling. worth it
