The Legacy Model Is Broken

Paper-Based Backlogs

Physical application centers create bottlenecks. Applicants queue for hours, mail documents, and wait months. 360,000+ applicants are currently waiting for visa interviews globally. The paper model doesn't scale.

Legacy Outsourcers, Legacy Technology

VFS Global and TLScontact built their model around physical offices and manual handling in the 2000s. The world has moved to digital — your visa system should too.

No Digital Channel

Applicants expect to apply online. Without an eVisa platform, your country falls behind the 70+ nations already offering digital visa applications.

Staffing & Budget Pressure

25%+ of midlevel consular positions are vacant. Budget cuts target consulate closures. You need technology that multiplies capacity, not more buildings and headcount.

Fraud Detection Gaps

Manual document review misses sophisticated forgeries. Without AI-powered verification, fraudulent applications consume officer time and create security risks.

Inconsistent Applicant Experience

Different posts, different processes. Applicants get conflicting information. A centralized digital platform ensures every applicant worldwide gets the same experience.

VisaHQ Handles the Technology

While your government retains complete sovereign authority over visa decisions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does VisaHQ make visa decisions?

No. All visa decisions — approvals, denials, interviews — remain exclusively with your government's consular officers. VisaHQ provides the technology platform for online applications, document verification, and administrative processing. Your sovereignty is absolute.

How is this different from VFS Global or TLScontact?

VisaHQ is a technology platform, not a physical outsourcer. VFS and TLScontact operate brick-and-mortar visa application centers with staff who handle paper documents. VisaHQ provides a digital eVisa platform — applicants apply online from anywhere in the world. No physical offices, no paper handling, no in-person appointments required. It's the difference between building post offices and building email.

How does the user-pays model work?

Applicants pay a modest service fee for using the digital platform on top of the standard visa fee. This funds the entire eVisa operation — cloud infrastructure, AI document processing, payment systems, and support — at zero cost to your government. The model is proven across 70+ governments and generates revenue for countries.

What about applicants who can't apply online?

Our platform supports assisted digital channels — embassy staff, authorized agents, or call center operators can submit applications on behalf of applicants. The platform also works on basic smartphones with low-bandwidth optimization.

How do you handle identity verification without biometric hardware?

Digital identity authentication uses passport MRZ reading, document NFC chip verification where supported, AI-powered facial matching against passport photos, and document authenticity analysis. These software-based methods meet or exceed the accuracy of traditional hardware-based identity verification.

Has VisaHQ built eVisa platforms before?

VisaHQ has processed visa applications for 200+ countries and built deep expertise in global visa requirements, document workflows, and compliance frameworks. Our platform technology is proven at scale. We're now bringing this capability directly to governments as a white-label eVisa solution.
