Online visa services compared
20 private services that apply for visas, e-visas and travel authorisations online, compared on what each one publishes: destinations, prices, refund terms, support, where it is based and which steps of the application its own software does. None of them is a government website.
Our comparison, not an endorsement. Services can't pay for a place. The box shows the first service on our Global list, ordered by how many application steps each service's own software does; the table is A–Z. You can usually apply on the government's own site for the official fee only.

What each service's own software does
Five steps of a visa application, and whether each service's own software does them: a guided form instead of the government's, autofill from your documents, an automated document check, submission by software and automated status tracking. This is the order of our Global list. A step counts where the service says so on its own website, in words we quote, or where our editors verified it by hand.

How we compared
We read each service's own website on 1 Nov 2026: its terms, refund policy, contact and price pages. Destinations are counted from the list each service publishes, or from a list it gave us; where a service only states a figure, we show the figure and say it isn't counted. Example prices are visa or travel-authorisation products only, as each service publishes them; where it shows the government fee separately, so do we. Passport services and arrival cards are left out. Refund and support terms are short summaries of the service's own words, each linked to the page we read. Services can't pay for a place, and the table is A–Z.
The automation steps come from each service's own website, help centre or docs, read on 5 Nov 2026, or from a check by our editors. “Yes” means its own pages say its software does the step, and we quote them, or that our editors verified it by hand: then it reads “Verified by our editors” with the date and what we checked, and there is no quote. “No” means they say a person or the traveller does it; “Not stated” means they don't say and we haven't verified it. Marketing words alone, such as “AI-powered”, don't count, and nor do reviews or articles by others. The Global list goes by the number of steps, then by destinations covered, then A–Z.
FAQ
Is iVisa legit?
iVisa is run by Document Advisor, Inc., a subsidiary of HelloGov AI Inc. It is private, not official: “iVisa is a private company, not a government agency.” (ivisa.com). It charges one all-in price for its help; you can also apply on the government's own site.
Is VisaHQ legitimate?
VisaHQ is run by VisaHQ.com, Inc., headquartered on Embassy Row in Washington, DC, and it describes itself as a registered third-party service provider with the US Department of State and foreign consular entities (visahq.com). It is a private service: its fee comes on top of the embassy fee (for example a USD 59 service fee plus a USD 26 embassy fee for India's 30-day e-Visa, for US citizens).
Are there fake visa sites?
Some private sites look like government portals. Every service on this page is private: 17 of the 20 say so on their own pages; Atlys, Pickvisa and VisaHQ don't say it in so many words. For an e-visa, the official government site charges the official fee only; check the address before you pay.
