How do I get the visa or the documents?
A few years ago, it was mainly possible to apply for a visa in writing. In the meantime, almost every country offers the possibility of issuing visas online/digitally. Accordingly, there are now also good websites to make applying for visas easier. So we start again with iVisa, because here you also have the possibility to get the visa for the normal price plus a small fee to iVisa. Somehow iVisa has to be profitable and for me it has definitely been worthwhile so far, absolutely reliable and it worked without any problems! What is fulfilling for me, especially nowadays when banks are mostly trying to present payments in a non-transparent way (see the post to this), is that this company is very transparent with its prices.
However, I must also say that I have mostly only ordered the complicated visas, such as the Russian or Chinese visas via iVisa. For the Russian visa, for example, you need an invitation letter and that’s where the first inconvenience starts, because the invitation letter can only be issued by a licensed travel agency operating in Russia. If you do the whole process with iVisa (who is licenced there), it’s quick and no problem! That has been my experience so far! Ultimately, you can apply for all visas via iVisa. However, I recommend using iVisa first to check and after you see what documents you need, you are spoilt for choice. Of course there are other providers but I have only used iVisa or the embassy websites so far.
Now you can see an example of two screenshots to show you how easy it is to use it:
