Visa Application Services for South Africans
A visa consultant prepares your application properly, books your appointment, and gets you to the counter with nothing missing.
Why applications get refused
Most visa refusals for South Africans are not close calls. They are incomplete document sets, bank statements that do not show what the consulate needs to see, itineraries that do not match the dates on the form, and cover letters that fail to demonstrate a reason to come home. Every one of those is fixable before you submit, but only if someone catches it.
That is the whole job. We do not make the decision and we cannot promise one. What we do is make sure that when a consular officer opens your file, there is nothing in it to object to.

What it does not include
- Embassy, consulate and visa-centre fees. These are paid by you, directly to them, and are separate from our service fee.
- Travel insurance, flights and accommodation.
- Attending your appointment. You submit your own application in person and give your own biometrics. No agent may do this for you.
- A guaranteed outcome. The decision belongs to the consulate. What we change is how well prepared your application is when it reaches them.
What it costs
GetVisa is a paid professional service. Fees depend on the destination, the visa type and how many people are travelling, so we quote per application rather than publishing a single price. You get a written quote before any work starts. The quote itself is free and carries no obligation.
If the quote is not for you, say so and nothing further happens. We would rather tell you the number early than waste your time.
How it works
- Tell us about your trip. Destination, purpose, roughly when you plan to travel, and how many people. WhatsApp is fastest.
- We assess and quote. You get an honest read on your case and a written fee before any work begins.
- We prepare the application. Checklist, document review, forms completed, appointment booked.
- You submit and attend. You go to your appointment with a file that is already complete, and we stay with you until the decision.
