Our aim is to provide the best possible Personal Service to complement and enhance the efficiency and speed of our Consular Services which consistently have the highest success rate amongst all of our competitors for first time acceptance of applications on first lodgement.

We have sent a copy of the above statement to all known competitors. Not one reply or comment has been received that contests our claim.

This record achievement (corroborated by results which are updated daily) is maintained because each application is checked for minimum requirements before submission. This is the basis of us achieving almost 100% successful acceptances at first attempt.

Time is actually budgeted in order to allow for a skilled inspection of all the important sections of the application that are troublesome and which are known to be problematic if either the content or the way it is presented are not both exactly as required,

Supplements apply at certain embassies

Discounts are sometimes available when we submit checked applications in quantity

Reducing supplement is to allow for the additional administration involved due to the pre-arranging, pre-notification, pre-preparation and/or special presentation that is required by certain embassies. As we are able to pass on the benefit of savings made when processing additional applications at the same time, the supplement reduces in order to provide the same discounts (25%, 50% or 75% off, etc.) that we normally give to each additional traveller.

Fixed supplement is applied when each application incurs the same additional costs.

Single supplement is activated when, due to the intensive pre-administration required or the inevitable waiting time expected, it would not be economic to process a single application. Unlike many of our competitors, we do not stockpile applications for economic or for volume processing. We lodge each and every application at the first opportunity once all the requirements are met, even if it means visiting an embassy or a consular authority to submit only one application.

Off-route supplement is only applicable if the relevant consular or government office is outside central London or significantly off our normal routes. The supplement will allow for the two journeys to both submit the application/s and collect the processed documents. Unlike most of our competitors, we do not charge more for each application or submission. We charge only the one supplement per batch of applications or documents that are being submitted and collected at the same time.

Miscellaneous supplement may apply only temporarily at an individual embassy or it may be relevant only to a specific classification of visa or it may be due to a peculiarity at a particular embassy. If it is because we are required to pay for consular fees on an additional separate visit or at a different office building or at a bank or a post office the supplement will be charged at 50% of the ‘1st traveller’ rate for the first application and at 6.25% of the ‘1st traveller’ rate for each subsequent application that is dealt with at the same time.

Waiting Time supplement is a one-off set-charge to cover the appropriate contingency arrangements needed to prepare for and make due allowance for the unpredictable waiting time that will inevitably be incurred due to the excessive queues that prevail at certain embassies. The supplement will allow for the waiting time anticipated on the two consular visits to both lodge the application/s and collect the processed documents.

Unlike most of our competitors, we do not require each traveller to pay more. We charge only the one supplement per embassy, irrespective of the total number of applications that are being made and submitted at the same time. We do not charge more for every application, each traveller or per passport.

The waiting time at a particular embassy can vary due to their busy, peak or seasonal periods. Refer to your destination country to see if a supplement or a discount is currently applicable.

Meet & Greet

This is a full ‘Meet and Greet’ service and not just a delivery or drop-off facility.

Our courier representative will only hand-over documents to the traveller in person.
They will have the contact details and mobile phone number you have provided us with and you and the traveller may have those of our Meet & Greet representative.
If you have notified us of your rendezvous arrival route, our representative will then be able to trace the possible cause of any delay and take appropriate action.
Our representative will not leave unless contact has been established with the traveller or else with the approval of the traveller’s office, agent or representative.

Waiting Time is chargeable after 15 mins past the ‘Meet & Greet’ appointment time.

These are just some of the facilities in our support service infrastructure that ensure our ability to perform whenever a possibility exists.

S E R V I C E C O M M I T M E N T

Our aim is to provide the best possible Personal Service to complement and enhance the efficiency and speed of our Consular Services which consistently have the highest success rate amongst all of our competitors for first time acceptance of applications on first lodgement.

We have sent a copy of the above statement to all known competitors. Not one reply or comment has been received that contests our claim.

This record achievement (corroborated by results which are updated daily) is maintained because each application is checked for minimum requirements before submission. This is the basis of us achieving almost 100% successful acceptances at first attempt.

Time is actually budgeted in order to allow for a skilled inspection of all the important sections of the application that are troublesome and which are known to be problematic if either the content or the way it is presented are not both exactly as required,

~ a n d ~

the range of service options available in this price list is evidence of the comprehensive infrastructure of our established support facilities, which are maintained to ensure that we will always have the ability to perform whenever a possibility exists.

Service is our business ~ If you’re not satisfied, we’re not satisfied

Supplements apply at certain embassies

Discounts are sometimes available when we submit checked applications in quantity

Reducing supplement is to allow for the additional administration involved due to the pre-arranging, pre-notification, pre-preparation and/or special presentation that is required by certain embassies. As we are able to pass on the benefit of savings made when processing additional applications at the same time, the supplement reduces in order to provide the same discounts (25%, 50% or 75% off, etc.) that we normally give to each additional traveller.

Fixed supplement is applied when each application incurs the same additional costs.

Single supplement is activated when, due to the intensive pre-administration required or the inevitable waiting time expected, it would not be economic to process a single application. Unlike many of our competitors, we do not stockpile applications for economic or for volume processing. We lodge each and every application at the first opportunity once all the requirements are met, even if it means visiting an embassy or a consular authority to submit only one application.

Off-route supplement is only applicable if the relevant consular or government office is outside central London or significantly off our normal routes. The supplement will allow for the two journeys to both submit the application/s and collect the processed documents. Unlike most of our competitors, we do not charge more for each application or submission. We charge only the one supplement per batch of applications or documents that are being submitted and collected at the same time.

Miscellaneous supplement may apply only temporarily at an individual embassy or it may be relevant only to a specific classification of visa or it may be due to a peculiarity at a particular embassy. If it is because we are required to pay for consular fees on an additional separate visit or at a different office building or at a bank or a post office the supplement will be charged at 50% of the ‘1st traveller’ rate for the first application and at 6.25% of the ‘1st traveller’ rate for each subsequent application that is dealt with at the same time.

Waiting Time supplement is a one-off set-charge to cover the appropriate contingency arrangements needed to prepare for and make due allowance for the unpredictable waiting time that will inevitably be incurred due to the excessive queues that prevail at certain embassies. The supplement will allow for the waiting time anticipated on the two consular visits to both lodge the application/s and collect the processed documents.

Unlike most of our competitors, we do not require each traveller to pay more. We charge only the one supplement per embassy, irrespective of the total number of applications that are being made and submitted at the same time. We do not charge more for every application, each traveller or per passport.

The waiting time at a particular embassy can vary due to their busy, peak or seasonal periods. Refer to your destination country to see if a supplement or a discount is currently applicable.

Refer to your destination country to see if a supplement or a discount is currently applicable.

Meet & Greet

This is a full ‘Meet and Greet’ service and not just a delivery or drop-off facility.

Our courier representative will only hand-over documents to the traveller in person.
They will have the contact details and mobile phone number you have provided us with and you and the traveller may have those of our Meet & Greet representative.
If you have notified us of your rendezvous arrival route, our representative will then be able to trace the possible cause of any delay and take appropriate action.
Our representative will not leave unless contact has been established with the traveller or else with the approval of the traveller’s office, agent or representative.

Waiting Time is chargeable after 15 mins past the ‘Meet & Greet’ appointment time.
