Visa Guidance That Keeps Your Sign-On On Schedule
From passport checks to embassy appointments, we help seafarers assemble the right documentation for international sign-ons — so a paperwork delay never costs you a joining date.
Documentation Support Beyond the Visa Form
Visa rejections and delays are rarely about the form itself — they're about missing supporting documents or mistimed applications. We help you get both right.
Document Checklist Review
We verify your passport validity, CDC, COC, and employment letter before you approach an embassy or consulate.
Application Timing
We plan submission timing around your sign-on date and known processing windows for each country.
Transit Visa Coordination
Guidance on transit visa requirements for layover countries, not just the destination.
Employer Coordination
We liaise with the manning partner or shipping company for sponsorship letters and joining instructions where required.
From Document Check to Sign-On
A straightforward process so your paperwork is embassy-ready well before your joining date.
