Quick checklist (to reduce rejection risk)

  • Accuracy: make sure every entry matches your passport exactly.
  • Documents: upload clear, legible scans/photos in the required format.
  • Travel dates: confirm dates and entry/exit details are consistent across your documents.
  • Contact info: provide a reachable email/phone for any clarifications during review.

Important notes before you apply

  • Requirements vary: eVisa eligibility and document rules can change based on your nationality and travel history—always double-check before submitting.
  • Processing is an estimate: timelines shown on our site are estimates; additional reviews or security checks may cause delays.
  • Approval isn’t guaranteed: we help you prepare and submit accurate, complete documentation. If your application is rejected, review the reason provided and correct the issues for the best chance on resubmission.
  • Fees & refunds: government fees are often non-refundable; service refunds follow our Understand eligibility for service refunds.
