Important Notes

It is highly recommended to refrain from purchasing non-refundable flight itineraries or hotel accommodations until your official visa sticker has been stamped and confirmed.

TripFlyer Travels cannot guarantee absolute visa approval, as the final issuance authority rests solely with the respective Embassy and Consular officers.

The applicant must provide entirely authentic, verifiable documents and share only true information. Falsification or hiding records can lead to an immediate visa denial.

Visa processing timelines are entirely determined by embassy application volumes and administrative procedures. TripFlyer Travels has no authority over the internal timeline.

Financial solvency requires liquid, available cash in a current or savings account; Fixed Deposit Receipts (FDR) or DPS accounts are typically not prioritized by the embassy as primary travel funds.

The applicant’s passport must carry a minimum of seven (7) months’ total validity from your intended date of entry, featuring at least two consecutive blank pages. Ensuring this validity remains the applicant’s responsibility.

In compliance with biometrics regulations, short-term tourist visa applicants may be required to submit physical fingerprints at the official visa application center during passport hand-in. For individual submissions, we handle the paperwork, but applicants must attend embassy interviews independently if required.

All visa submission center fees, consular charges, and service fees are strictly non-refundable once portal uploads are finalized. Emergency modifications or cancellations after submission may incur extra charges.

It is your sole responsibility to follow visa terms and depart the destination country on time. Any overstay penalties are the applicant’s responsibility.
