WAFID booking mistakes
- Entering a name or passport number differently from the passport.
- Selecting the wrong city during appointment booking.
- Closing the payment page before downloading the appointment slip.
- Assuming the medical center can always fix booking mistakes.
Medical day mistakes
- Going without a printed WAFID appointment slip.
- Not carrying two sets of passport photocopies.
- Forgetting the visa authorization or invitation copy.
- Not carrying cash as backup for the medical fee.
- Arriving too late in the day and losing time in center workflow.
VFS mistakes
- Booking VFS before the fit certificate is available.
- Not checking the current VFS document checklist.
- Forgetting apostille or Arabic translation where required.
- Not noting the MOFA number from the VFS slip.
MOFA linking mistake
One important step is often missed. After VFS, the MOFA number may need to be given to the medical center so they can update or link the medical report against that number.
A small mistake can delay stamping. Keep printed copies, digital copies and clear photos of all important slips.
Safety note: Avoid random payment links and claims of guaranteed medical results. Read the WAFID scams and safety warning before booking.
