VisaCentral’s Unique Services For Group Travel Include:
-
VisaCentral Application Pack. VisaCentral creates and distributes custom VisaCentral Application Packs for travel groups with the necessary entry requirements for each country they plan to visit.
Travellers are often unfamiliar with visa requirements and processing procedures when preparing to travel abroad. Travellers who may not have applied for visas in the past can easily follow the simple steps outlined in the VisaCentral Application Pack. Designed in an easy to read format, it is an efficient method of delivering visa requirements to travel groups. The VisaCentral Application Pack includes all visa applications, requirements, processing times, and useful information specific to a travel group’s destination.
The VisaCentral Application Pack can be tailored to cover multiple countries on a travel group’s itinerary. VisaCentral can also customise the pack with your group travel logo to offer you an additional opportunity for branding.
VisaCentral provides discounted rates to travel groups using the VisaCentral Application Pack and can also provide commission at the travel group’s request. Other payment options include building the cost of the visa into the total tour cost and providing the visa service as “inclusive” or as partial payment of fees by the travel group. The group organizer can sell the traveller this service at point of sale to maximize commissions and ensure all travellers obtain visas for their destination.
