Tourist and business visas

You pick the country. Vizir does the paperwork

The application form and a document checklist built for your passport, plus your visa appointment on the Full service plan. A visa specialist reviews every application before it is submitted.

Free to start. You pay once the package is ready and you have seen it.

How it works

Three steps from “I want to go” to a booked appointment

01

Name the country and dates

Vizir shows straight away which documents your passport and country of residence call for, what the fee is and when to apply.

02

Send a photo of your passport and answer a few questions

You do not retype your passport: we take the details from the photo and a specialist checks them against it. What is left is what the passport does not say: work, past trips, where you will stay, your route.

03

A specialist checks it — you submit

A visa specialist checks the form against your passport and documents. You get a finished package; on the Full service plan, an appointment as well.

What is included

A finished package, not a list of tips

  • The application form, filled in to the consulate's rules. Passport details letter for letter.
  • A document checklist for your case: passport, country of residence, job, purpose of the trip.
  • A cover letter and a day-by-day itinerary that match your bookings.
  • Specialist review: form, statements, bookings, insurance.
  • Your visa appointment. A specialist checks the official site daily and books in your name — on the Full service plan.
  • Telegram or WhatsApp support until the consulate decides — on the Full service plan.

Review

A specialist reads your application before it is submitted

In 2025 Schengen consulates refused 14.6% of applications worldwide, and 6.4% of those lodged in Russia. Most reasons on the refusal form are about paperwork: the purpose of the trip is not justified, the funds are not shown, the details do not match.

  • The form matches the passport letter for letter.
  • Trip dates, bookings, insurance and statements line up.
  • The bank balance meets the country's required daily amount for the whole stay.
  • The purpose of the trip is backed by documents, not just words.

Living abroad

Russian passport, living elsewhere? Apply where you hold residence

A Schengen application is submitted in the country where you legally live. The single-entry rule introduced for Russian nationals in November 2025 covers those who live and apply in Russia. With a residence permit in Türkiye, Serbia, the UAE or Kazakhstan that rule does not apply; the length of the visa and the number of entries are for the consulate to decide.

Questions

What people ask before they start

How much does Vizir charge for a visa application?
A Schengen document package is €49 per person; full service with the appointment is €129. The UK starts at €79, the US at €99. Consular and visa-centre fees are paid separately — the amounts for each country are on the prices page.
When do I pay?
Starting is free: you name the country and passport and get a document list and a quote. You pay once the form and the package are ready and you have seen them.
Will I get the visa if I apply through Vizir?
The consulate decides. Vizir is responsible for the application: the form matches the passport, the set of documents is complete, the dates and amounts line up. A visa specialist reads it before it is submitted.
Do I get my money back if the visa is refused?
Consular fees are not refunded after a refusal — that is the consulates' own rule. Vizir refunds its service fee in full if a mistake of ours is found in the form or documents after submission. Details are in the refund policy.
Can I apply if I do not live in my home country?
Yes. A Schengen application is submitted in the country where you legally live — where you hold a residence permit or another long-term status. For Russian nationals, the November 2025 single-entry rule does not cover such applications. Applying as a visitor in a third country is an exception: the consulate has to accept your reason for not applying where you live, and for Russian nationals the European Commission tells consulates to take such applications only in hardship and humanitarian cases. A UK visa can be applied for in any country where you are legally present; a US visa, in your country of nationality or residence.
How long does it take to prepare the documents?
The form and the document list are ready within 2 working days after we have your passport and all your answers — 3 working days for a group. The cover letter and itinerary follow once you send your bookings. After that, timing depends on your bank and employer letters and on open dates at the visa centre.
What if there are no appointment slots?
On the Full service plan a Vizir specialist checks the official booking site every working day and books a date in your name, with the confirmation sent to you. No date by the day you need — we refund the difference between the plans.
Can I apply for a family or a group?
Yes, up to five people in one request. A discount of 10% to 25% applies to every traveller.
Is it safe to send a passport scan?
Copies of your documents are used only to prepare your application; inside Vizir only the specialists working on it open them. On request we delete them from our systems and from our side of the chat at any time. How data is stored is set out in the privacy policy.
Which countries does Vizir cover?
France, Italy, Spain, Greece, Hungary, United Kingdom, United States. Need another country? Write in the chat and we'll check whether we can take it. Canada and New Zealand are the exception: by their law only advisers licensed there may prepare applications for a fee.
