Frequently Asked Questions

How long does my passport have to be valid in order to apply for a U. S. visa?

You must possess a passport valid for travel to the United States with a validity date at least six months beyond your intended period of stay in the United States (unless country-specific agreements provide exemptions).

Do I qualify for the Visa Waiver Program?

You qualify for the Visa Waiver Program if you are a citizen of a Visa Waiver Program country, possess a machine-readable passport, are traveling for temporary business or a visit of less than 90 days, meet other program requirements, and have obtained an authorization through the Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA).

You must be a citizen of a Visa Waiver Program-eligible country in order to use this program. Permanent residents of VWP-eligible countries do not qualify for the Visa Waiver Program unless they are also citizens of VWP-eligible countries. We recommend you visit the Visa Waiver Program website before any travel to the United States to determine if you are eligible for the VWP.

What is the fee for ESTA and who has to pay it?

ESTA registration is required for all travelers to the United States under the Visa Waiver Program. There is a US$14 fee for ESTA registration. The fee can be paid online using a debit card or any of the following credit cards: Visa, MasterCard, American Express, or Discover. Third parties (travel agents, family members, etc.) can pay your ESTA fee for you if you do not have the correct type of credit card. If the ESTA registration is denied, the fee is only US$4.

If I travel to the United States without ESTA, what happens?

Visa Waiver Program travelers who have not obtained approval through ESTA should expect to be denied boarding on any air carrier bound for the United States. If you are allowed to board, you can expect to encounter significant delays and possible denial of admission at the U.S. port of entry (i.e., arrival airport). ESTA registration usually only takes a few minutes to complete, authorization often arrives in seconds, and it is valid for two years, unless the traveler’s passport expires within that two-year period. In those cases, ESTA validity is limited to the passport’s validity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an Apostille?

An Apostille is a certification seal on a legal or personal document which permits any country to understand the information on said document regardless of the language they read or speak. This certification for documents was established via the 1961 Hague Convention in order to streamline the process of approving individuals to submit documents in foreign nations. The United States of America began to use of Apostille document authentication services in 1981. Apostille seals are provided on documents such as Diploma’s, Power of Attorney’s, Vital documents such as Marriage/Birth certificates and Federal Government issued documents such as Background checks, IRS documents, Naturalization certificates, etc.

What is the Purpose of the Apostille service?

The Apostille service is a service provided by our company where the document is certified with the Apostille seal from the respective government agency making your document eligible for submission in the intended country of use. An Apostille seal requirement eliminates the need to submit the document to the consulate of the intended country of submission. This process verifies the authenticity of the document, the signature of all parties, the purpose of the document and signature and identifies who verified the document from the seal or stamp which is applied to the verified document.

Who can issue Apostille Document Certification in the United States?

In the United States, the Apostille certification process is verified by the Secretary of State for Non Federal Government issued documents and/or the US Department of State for documents issued by US Federal Government agencies. Apostille document verification services can be completed by individual State Secretary of State offices – but in the case of Federal Government issued documents they are submitted to the Department of State office for certification.

Other individuals who can begin this process include county clerks, statewide officials and notary public officials.

As you can see, there are many reasons and steps to having official documents verified through the Apostille service process. It is due to this fact, that using a reliable company like ours to perform these important steps for you can save you time, money and stress.
