Frequently asked questions
What is a Visa Application Centre?
A Visa Application Centre (VAC) is a third-party facility that collects visa applications, biometrics and supporting documents on behalf of an embassy or consulate. The actual visa decision is still made by the destination government.
What is VFS Global?
VFS Global is a commercial visa service provider that operates application centres for many governments. It collects documents and biometrics but does not decide visa outcomes.
What is BLS International?
BLS International is another visa service provider that operates application centres for select destinations. Like other VACs, it collects applications on behalf of the government.
What is TLScontact?
TLScontact is a visa application centre operator used by several destinations for collecting applications and biometrics. The provider for your destination depends on the destinationโs official appointment system.
Do I apply at the embassy or visa centre?
It depends on the destination. Some destinations accept applications directly at the embassy; many route applications through a VAC. Krosz shows the verified submission route where one is on file.
Do I need an appointment?
Most visa application centres require a booked appointment before you visit. Where Krosz has a verified appointment page, a link is shown; otherwise, confirm on the providerโs official website before travelling.
