i live in the usa so it's different for me i think but im in the process of getting one and it's all been online bc i didn't trust anywhere near me and it was split into an intake appointment, another call which i honestly didnt really know the purpose of but i think it was mostly just confirming everything i said in the intake appointment, and then i filled out like 4 or 5 questionnaires and they had my mom fill out some as well and she also had a one hour call to talk about my early childhood (it could've been anyone that knew me in early childhood, i just happened to choose my mom) and im pretty sure i just have one more call to discuss my results and treatment plan etc

they asked questions about mental health/other disorders as well, not just autism... it also might be even more different for you though bc im getting my eval as an adult
