We are a private consultancy
The Parashars is an independent, private visa consultancy. We are not a government department, embassy, consulate or official visa-application centre, and we are not affiliated with any of them. Government and visa-centre fees are payable to those authorities directly and are separate from our professional service fee.
No guarantee of a visa
No consultant can guarantee the outcome of a visa application — the decision rests solely with the relevant embassy or consulate, entirely at their discretion. We help you put forward the strongest, most honest application possible; we cannot and do not promise approval, and we'd urge you to be cautious of anyone who does.
Information is general guidance
The content on this website — fees, timelines, document lists and eligibility notes — is provided for general information and is accurate to the best of our knowledge at the time of writing. Visa rules, fees and processing times change frequently and without notice. Always confirm the current requirements for your specific case with us, or with the official source, before you act on anything here.
Success figures are historical
Any success rates or numbers we mention reflect our past record. They are not a prediction or a promise about the outcome of any individual application.
External links
Where we link to embassy, VFS or other official websites, we do so for your convenience. We aren't responsible for the content or accuracy of those third-party sites.
Talk to us about your case
Every case is different, and general information is no substitute for advice on your own situation. For guidance specific to you, speak to one of our counsellors.
