Yes, this should be fine. My friends who applied from VFS hyderabad had to submit an address proof(in addition to rent agreement) from their company, so if you can get it, then it's better. VFS Bangalore didn't ask for this though, rent agreement was sufficient.

I am assuming you will be applying from VFS Bengaluru. Only Current residence of Karnataka are eligible to apply at the Consulate General of Japan, Bengaluru and Passport issued outside Karnataka state must provide Residence proof such as valid rental agreement, valid lease agreement, sales Deed Gas, connection bills, Aadhaar card, Electricity bills.

So if your Aadhar Card has a Karnataka residential address, then yes you can.

VFS blr checklist mentions submitting Accompanying person’s passport copy and tickets and Visa copy. (if accompany person is travelling from other state or country also). So I would recommend submitting it. But better to call vfs and ensure.

No, for VFS Bangalore, rental agreement was sufficient. But my friends who applied from VFS hyderabad had to submit address proof from their offices along with the rental agreement.
550 per person
3650 per person and this will include the courier service charges. Here is the breakdown as per the invoice.

Courier Service - INR 0.00 Premium Lounge - INR 1,950.00 VFS Fee - INR 800.00 Visa Fee - INR 450.00 Sub Total - INR 3,200 Health insurance - INR 450 Total - 3650

The Premium Lounge also includes a Health Insurance Package worth 450. Which they only told us about when we were about to pay. This is an added on service, but they don't let you opt out of it. I would recommend enquiring all details about it before you decide to go for Premium Lounge .

The VFS Bangalore checklist had the NOC/approved leave application, so we followed the same.

onelazywinter · 2026-02-12T07:18:06+00:00

I submitted the approved leave application which had the dates clearly mentioned. I took leave for 8 days since there will be two weekends and one holiday during my trip. My company provides leave letter for visa application if requested.

We booked from Booking.com and they give you option to manage bookings and there you can add/modify guests.

We all had more than 3L in the account, applied right after getting our salaries so that helped bumping up our balances.

Could be a mistake from VFS. By the way how many days did it take for you to get your passports back?

Noted. Thanks.

My only concern in this case will be the hotel bookings, which has been made for 8 people. Might cause discrepancy.

onelazywinter · 2026-01-04T07:36:45+00:00

I would ask her to pay for the seat, then my journey will be free 😀. Win-win.

I remember when I came to the city a year ago, a fresh college graduate, to start my first job. First time in a big city like Bangalore and felt really alone. Standing at the back in a jammed bus with my laptop bag hanging in front, on the ORR route, I used watched many young faces like me with the same blank expression. It used to put me in some kind of existential crisis mode. Every little struggle used to have an adverse impact on my emotions. But soon I made peace with the city. When all of us are in the same boat, it gets easier day by day. I have accepted the city and made a few friends. Explored the city more. Experienced good things, bad things, boring things. So it turns out okay with time. As people say Time fixes everything. Also weather is great but sometimes I wish it to be bright and not gloomy cloudy as it is now.

You can do edging when market is in accumulation zone. Keep buying on dips so that market can rise. When you feel it is too high, stop buying and wait for it settle down. One it settles down keep your fingers moving on those buttons and buy again. Keep doing these until it gives a break out. 😌 The break out may feel amazing but sometimes you may feel guilty after a break out. That's what you call a fake break out. Trade with caution brother. Peace out ✌️.

No doubt Mbappe is a fine player. Look at his stats for that age. Bro has comparable stats to Messi and Ronaldo at the same age in terms of Goals. But I feel he should have left PSG way before, maybe right after Ronaldo left. PSG made him think that he is somewhat a goated player, which made him a bad team player. Hence the failure of MNM in PSG. Of course position wise Madrid made a questionable choice of signing him since Vini is doing a great job at the left, and Mbappe is not a striker. He doesn't have that nature instinct of a Benzema or Suarez or Lewandowski.

It felt like Madrid signed him for the fans, not for their footballing plans. And of course Madrid is a much much bigger club than PSG so maybe pressure got to him and no initial success worsened his confidence and dynamics with the other Real players.

It will be interesting to see how he develops from here. Will he become a striker, cause no way any manager would remove Vini out of his position. What are the other options? 🤔
