What's the most common reason for tourist visa rejection?

Insufficient proof of ties to home country (job letter, property, family), inconsistent travel history, unclear purpose of visit, or financial documents that don't show stability. We pre-screen and structure your case to address all of these.

What if I was previously rejected?

We have a dedicated rejection-recovery process. We analyze the refusal letter, rebuild your application with stronger documentation, and refile with the same or different country. Recovery success rate: 78%.

Do I need travel insurance?

Schengen: mandatory €30,000+ coverage. UK, Canada, Australia: recommended but not required. US: not required but ESTA/B1-B2 holders strongly advised. We include policy procurement in our service.

Can I get a multi-entry visa on first application?

Possible but not guaranteed. Schengen issues multi-entry to applicants with prior 2+ successful visits. UK Standard Visitor can be 2/5/10-year. US issues 10-year B1/B2 if eligible. Strategy depends on your travel history.

How long can I stay on a tourist visa?

Schengen: 90 days within any 180-day window. UK: 6 months per entry. US B1/B2: up to 6 months per entry. Canada: 6 months default. Overstaying invalidates future applications — we track expiry for every client.
