The visa fee is not refundable.

vdaDocs reads what each government actually publishes for your exact route, from India to 196 destinations, and turns it into the documents you need, what each one has to prove, and how much of it you have already got. Every requirement names the official page it came from, so you can check us.

Most refusals are not a judgement about you

22.04%
adjusted refusal rate on US B visas for Indian applicants, FY2025

Up from 16.32% the year before. The State Department’s own measure, on its own table.

181,111
applications from India refused for a Schengen visa in 2025

A 15.8% refusal rate against 14.6% worldwide; 1,768,605 refusals in all. Indian applicants are refused more often than the global average.

42.8%
of Canadian temporary-resident applications were not approved in 2024

40.4% in 2025. From India, 37.6% and 36.4%. IRCC’s finalized counts include withdrawn and returned applications, so this is an upper bound.

20.7%
of UK visitor visa applications were refused in the year to March 2026

585,536 refusals. The rate is our calculation from the Home Office’s published counts, which are counts rather than a rate. The trend runs 12.3% in 2019 to 20.8% in 2025; Indian nationals sit below the average, at 18.1%.

What a requirement looks like

Every document says what it has to prove, and where that came from

This is one filing on a real route, straight out of the catalogue. Tick what you already have and watch the readiness change: the thing a checklist PDF cannot do.

The fee we do not take

What the rest of this market charges you for

No service fee, no upsell, and no version of this where we quietly become the thing you are paying. The government’s fee is the government’s; we do not add to it, because we do not take one.

The same checklist, counted against your appointment date

Readiness is weighted across every document on the plan and tracked separately from whether you can file yet. The news desk rides along, ranked for the route on your plan.

Neither listing exists yet; these go to the waitlist, and we write once, on the day the app is downloadable.

The vdaDocs plan screen for a US B1/B2 route: a readiness ring at 19%, three filings each with their own count, and a target date of 18 September 2026.
