DO NOT FALL INTO FRAUD AND BEWARE OF SCAMS !
BLS International advises visa applicants to exercise caution and vigilance regarding the following points:
Our staff never ask visa applicants to make cash payments or any other form of payment to obtain an appointment, expedite the visa application process, secure an earlier appointment, or influence decision-making.
We do not recommend any direct payments into personal bank accounts.
Appointments must be booked exclusively through the BLS website. Please refer to the website for authorized service fees payable to BLS International.
Always request a receipt for optional value-added services available at our center.
The decision regarding visa applications is made solely by the competent authorities, and BLS International has no role or influence in this process. If you receive such a request (in writing or verbally), please report it immediately by completing the complaint form or by sending an email to antifraud@blsinternational.com.
Be cautious of intermediaries selling visa appointments under the name of BLS International or individually outside our center. All appointments must be booked through the BLS International website. Please refrain from purchasing appointments through a third party: this is a fraudulent practice that BLS International strongly condemns. As a responsible service provider, we make every effort to inform applicants to be wary of fraudulent intermediaries charging fees to clients for appointment bookings.
