Processing times
Processing time is counted from the next business day after all valid documents are received. Times vary by destination and by the processing speed you choose.
How long does it take?
Most applications are completed within a few business days. Each country page shows the typical range, and you can pick Standard, Rush, or Super Rush at checkout.
Can I make it faster?
Yes. Rush and Super Rush tiers add a one-time surcharge to prioritise your application and shorten the estimated timeframe.
When should I apply before my trip?
We recommend applying at least one to two weeks before departure to allow for any government queries or document requests.
Does the weekend count?
No. Estimates are in business days and exclude weekends and public holidays in the issuing country.
