of my confirmation, I realize I have chosen the wrong country,
processing time, number of entries, type of visa, etc.?
- If you have made a mistake
simply contact us and we will make the necessary changes to
your order. It is important to let us know as soon as possible.

us a company, personal or bank check as well as a money order
as payment. Simply make the selection from the drop down menu
under payment information and choose your payment type on the

What if I need to apply
for a visa and a passport? Will my orders be process together
or do I need to send each separately?
- You may apply at the same
time. Simply make a note in the comments section of the order
form indicating that you are doing so. Once your passport application
is completed it will be sent to the consulate for visa processing.

from and send it to you instead of submitting it online?
- Yes, however if you do not
press the "finish" button at the bottom of the page you will
not receive a confirmation or be able to track your order. Your

embassy application when we print it from our database. Sending
us a printed online application will delay the processing of
your visa. If you would like the actual application please contact
us and we will be happy to fax or send you one via US mail.

form are encrypted to prevent information from being viewed
