FAQ

Questions, answered.

The questions we hear most from UAE residents planning a trip. If yours is not here, ask us on WhatsApp.

Working with us

Is the result of the Visa Assessment a guarantee?

No. It is an indicative estimate based on what embassies commonly assess. Requirements depend on your nationality, profile and current embassy rules, and the decision always rests with the issuing authority.

Can you book my appointment?

Yes. We book the correct appointment at the relevant visa centre or embassy, then keep monitoring for earlier dates.

Do you write the cover letter and itinerary?

Yes. We prepare a tailored cover letter and a realistic day-by-day itinerary that match your documents.

Can you handle a whole family or a company group?

Yes. Families and corporate groups are managed as one coordinated case with a dedicated case manager.

Timing

How early should I apply?

As early as the embassy allows. Schengen countries usually accept applications up to six months before travel and at least 15 days before. For the UK and US, start as soon as your dates are fixed, because appointment waiting times change through the year.

I am travelling for an event. When should I start?

Check the event on our Events page: each one shows the latest recommended date to apply. Popular events fill appointment slots early, so start before that date if you can.

Documents

How long must my UAE residence visa be valid?

Most embassies want your residence visa to be valid for at least three months after your return date. Renew it first if it expires sooner.

Should I buy flights before my visa is approved?

Usually not. Many embassies advise against non-refundable tickets before approval. Use bookings that can be changed or cancelled where you can.

Refusals

I was refused before. Can I apply again?

Yes, but fix the reason first. Read the refusal letter carefully, add evidence that answers it and explain what changed in your cover letter. Applying again with the same file rarely changes the result.

Can any agency guarantee my visa?

No. Only the embassy or consulate decides. Be careful with anyone who promises approval.

Not sure which service you need?

Tell us where you are going and when. We will tell you exactly what your application needs.
