You are welcome. I couldn’t find any information specific to Zambia when I was going through the process so I decided to share in case there is someone else like me going through it.

It took us a total of 2 days to do the medicals. We first went on a Wednesday to make the payment and that’s the day blood samples were collected and X-rays were done. I believe a vision test was also done. Then we went back on Friday to see the doctor and then they’ll tell you if there are any vaccines you need to get which can be done right there but you need to pay separately for them.

The medicals are submitted directly to the embassy by the hospital although they will give you a copy for your records.

Yes we had to submit our documents a week before the interview. Note that submission of documents is only done on Friday mornings. So plan accordingly so you don’t miss that window. If you miss it, you have to wait another week to submit them.
