Hi Members,
Can someone clarify this for me, given the current Covid-19 situation in India and routine visa process suspended, is it possible for an Indian citizen to get visa stamped for first time stamp at a US Embassy/Consulate in another country where routine visa process has started. Kindly please advise.
Happy Holidays !!
Well, technically yes, if they allow. Many counties do not allow third country national stamping. But, if they allow like in Mexico and Canada for certain cases, you can give it a try. You need to be aware that, if there are issues, they may ask you to come back to your home country. So, plan for backups.

Thank you Kumar ,
I am thinking of getting it done somewhere in the middle east or south east Asia, I check the embassy website and they say allow third country national stamping.

It is your discretion, you can give it a shot, but be prepared for everything. If you do end up going out, do update your status here for community benefit.
