Carrier's liability is an old piece of legislation, dating to pre-9/11 times,
and European and Asian airlines have routinely checked visas before people
board, to keep out asylum seekers/refugees. Each non-visa-carrying passenger
not given entry costs the airline something like $3000 the last ti

I believe Brazil is one of the few places that practices fairly strict
reciprocity in terms of visas (most countries don't).

Dear all,
I read A.K. Ramanujan's 'Is There an Indian Way of Thinking: An Informal
Essay' many years back in the form of a photocopy. Since then I've
wanted to send that essay to some others, but haven't been able to
locate a non-paywalled online copy[1]. Would any of you have a digital
copy
UK visa office in New Delhi, India returned all the copies of documents that I
submitted, when handing back my passport with visa stamp. This was for a
short-visitor visa. I don't know if the procedure is different for other visa
categories.
