What you need to do is sign out VFS booking website and sign in again and keep generating a new code till it eventually work out. If it doesn’t work out, then sign out and sign in again until it works out. Seems the website is so busy that’s why

The SSL handshake failed. Error 525 usually means Cloudflare can’t establish a secure connection with the website’s server. Since you’ve already tried different PCs and browsers, the issue isn’t on your side. It’s most likely a problem with how the site’s SSL certificate or server is configured.

For booking sites (like biometric appointment portals), the fix has to be done by the website owners or their hosting team. You can try clearing cache, switching network (Wi-Fi/mobile), or checking in incognito mode, but if it still fails everywhere, you’ll need to reach out to the site’s support and report the 525 error. Unfortunately, this error can’t be solved from your computer; it’s an origin server/SSL configuration issue. Hope it helps!
