Where to get a new visa

I'm living in Bangalore. I need to renew my visa in mid feb but don't want to go back to UK.

Can anyone recommend a good place to renew?

By good I mean, hassle free and likely to renew visa without any hassles.

2 more things. Is it common to be turned down for a back to back tourist visa?

Do I need to wait for my existing visa to expire before making a new application?

And finally, what is you favourite colour and fave number?

Thanks for any help

Martin

Assuming you have a tourist visa...

You could try Kathmandu, but they'll likely only give you 3 months for back to back applications, and refuse repeated. Same story for most countries surrounding India.

If it's a second renewal without a break, applied for in Nepal, yes.

I vaguely read a posting somewhere that the OP was hippie-phobic.... KTM might not be a good idea.

Living in BLR means what ? [ Say it ain't so Joe ]

1. From BLR, CMB, and BKK are the least expensive in terms of airfares.

2. Any suspicion is a cause for denial of visa.

Okay, thanks. Maybe it's back to the UK and apply for a one year tourist visa. Got some thinking to do
