Family Visa Algeria

#familyvisa

About

A family visa for Algeria is issued to those applicants who have family members in Algeria but no Algerian citizenship.  Simply stating, non-Algerian close family members of Algerian citizens need a family visa for their family reunification. 

Eligibility

Eligibility criteria to visit Algeria for a family reunion living in Algeria are given as:

  • A proper reason to visit Algeria – such as having an immediate family in case of a family visa
  • Original documents required to travel abroad
  • Enough bank balance to bear the expenses of travel and stay
  • A genuine reason to return to your home country once the visa gets expired
  • You may have to submit Police Clearance Certificate to prove a clean criminal record

Documents

Important documents to get an Algerian family visa are listed below:

  • An original passport with a validity of 6 months having at least two blank pages at the end
  • 2-3 passport-size photos of standard dimensions
  • Properly filled visa application form and other documents required by the Algerian consulate office serving your region
  • A copy of the Algerian host’s ID, passport, or consular card
  • A properly signed and legalized invitation letter from the Algerian host/Spouse ensuring that they will cover all your expenses while living in Algeria
  • For a spouse of an Algerian citizen, a copy of the marriage certificate is required
  • For the kids of Algerian citizens, a copy of the child’s birth certificate is required 

Process

When to apply
You should apply for an Algerian family visa at least 1 or 2 months earlier than the time to go. Visa processing can be time taking if there is any mishap with documents.

How to apply
Depending upon the embassy rules, you can apply them in different ways.

  • In-person – You can apply by yourself after taking an appointment with the Algerian embassy. This is the safest way to apply
  • By courier – Second way to apply for a family visa to Algeria is by urgent mail or courier if the Algerian embassy supports this route. You have to add an extra envelope with self-address to get the visa and passport back. But if any documents are lost in this way, the embassy isn’t responsible.
  • By proxy – While applying by proxy, you have to give a notarized letter of authorization that the person will apply on your behalf.
  • By visa agency – If you are applying by a valid visa agency, then submitting of visa application is the responsibility of the visa agency.

However, all the above-mentioned ways to apply may vary from embassy to embassy depending upon their rules and regulations.

Visa Processing Time
Visa processing time is usually 10-20 days if there is no issue with the documents. If any document is incomplete or wrongly filled, it can cause a delay.

Duration & Fees

Duration
Duration for a single Algeria family visa to Algeria can reach a maximum of three months and after that, a visitor has to extend the visa. You have to apply at least 15 days before the expiry.

Fees
Depending upon the nationality of an applicant and the type of visa (single entry/multiple entries/ short stay/long stay) there are different fees. You have to consult the relevant Algerian embassy serving your region to ask for the fees details. 

Extension

Algerian visa is extendable but you have to apply at least half a month before the exit date mentioned on the original visa. The extension requires a valid reason to stay. You have to apply at the foreign office in Algeria and the Algerian host (e.g. spouse in this case) has to be present with you having an invitation letter. However, the Algerian administration has all the right to view the details and process accordingly.
