What people say about us
VisaHQ vs DIY
See how we compare
Same destination, two very different experiences. Here's what changes when you skip the consulate runaround.
With VisaHQ
Done in days, not weeks- One online form, 7 minutesPre-filled, error-checked, in plain English. No 40-page consulate PDF.
- Real human in your timezoneLive chat, WhatsApp, phone — answered same business day, every time.
- One itemized priceGovernment fees, our service fee, shipping — all visible before you commit.
- Tracked end-to-endReal-time status updates from notarization to delivery, insured shipping included.
- 99.6% first-time acceptanceTwo decades of consulate relationships translate into fewer rejections and no extra trips.
Doing it yourself
Best of luck- Government forms in foreign legaleseDecipher requirements that change without notice, in a language and format that vary by country.
- Phone trees and dead-end emailsHours on hold, then a generic auto-reply 5 business days later — if at all.
- Surprise fees at every stepNotary, courier, expedited handling, embassy stamp — each billed separately, often after you've paid.
- Standing in line at the consulateDay off work, parking, queue — and there's no guarantee they accept walk-ins.
- One small mistake = restartWrong photo size or missing notarization sends the whole package back. Travel plans slip.
