Announcement on visas by Taliban MFA

A further note published by the Taliban Ministry of Affairs confirms a tweet made by Minister Balkhi last year suggesting that the IEA will no longer be accepting visas issued by European and other embassies still under the control of the former government.

We have been reluctant to encourage travellers to seek visas at these embassies since last year and changed our visa advice as a result. This statement confirms that these visas have a high risk of not being accepted.
