While documentation varies by destination country, here’s a comprehensive list of commonly required documents for tourist visa applications:

• Passport: Must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your intended return date. It should have a minimum of 2 blank pages.
• Photographs: Recent passport-size photos meeting the size and background specifications of the respective embassy.
• Visa application form: Duly filled and signed.
• Travel itinerary: Including confirmed or tentative flight bookings showing entry and exit dates.
• Proof of accommodation: Hotel bookings or an invitation letter if you're staying with friends/family.
• Bank statements: Typically the last 3 to 6 months to demonstrate financial capacity to cover expenses during the trip.
• Income tax returns or Form 16: To support your financial background.
• Travel insurance: Mandatory for Schengen and many other countries, covering medical emergencies.
• Cover letter: Explaining your purpose of travel, duration, and assurance to return after the trip.
• Employment letter or business registration documents: To prove your occupational status.
• Leave approval letter (if employed): From your employer confirming your travel dates and job position.

We provide you with a personalized document checklist based on your travel destination and profile, and assist in preparing each document correctly.

Whether you can enter and exit the country multiple times depends on the visa type issued by the immigration authorities:

• Single-entry visa: Allows you to enter the destination country only once. Once you leave, you cannot return without applying for a new visa.
• Double-entry visa: Permits two entries into the country during the visa validity.
• Multiple-entry visa: Allows you to enter and leave the country as many times as you want, as long as the visa is still valid.

The duration of stay during each visit and the total time allowed in the country is governed by immigration rules. Some countries, like the USA or Canada, often grant long-term multiple-entry tourist visas, while others may issue single or double-entry based on your application.

We always clarify the type of visa you are applying for and ensure it suits your travel needs.

A visa denial can be disheartening, but it's not the end of your travel plan. Common reasons for visa rejection include:

• Incomplete or incorrect documentation
• Lack of strong ties to your home country
• Financial insufficiency
• Suspicion of intent to overstay
• Travel history or background concerns

If your visa is denied, here are your options:

• Understand the reason: Most embassies provide a letter explaining why the application was rejected. This helps identify what went wrong.
• Reapply: After addressing the issues that caused the denial, you can submit a new application.
• Appeal the decision: Some countries offer an appeal process or a review option within a specified period.
• Seek expert help: Our visa consultants analyze your rejection case in detail, help gather stronger documentation, and prepare you for a successful reapplication.

Being honest, well-prepared, and submitting complete documentation significantly reduces your chances of rejection.

Tourist visa validity refers to the period during which you can enter the country, not the duration of your stay. For example:

• A visa valid for 90 days from the date of issue means you must enter the country within those 90 days.
• The duration of stay (e.g., 15, 30, or 60 days) starts from the day you land in the destination country.

Some countries offer long-validity visas (e.g., 1-year multiple-entry visas), while others give short-term visas (e.g., 30-day single-entry). It’s also important to differentiate between visa validity and permitted stay.

We ensure your visa validity matches your intended travel period and that your return ticket falls within the allowed stay duration. Misunderstanding visa validity can lead to entry refusals or overstays.
