What does it mean when a “personal appearance” is required to get a visa?
Some consulates require applicants to appear in person at the consulate when applying for a visa. This may be done just to verify the applicant’s identity or a formal interview may be conducted. In these cases, third parties (like CIBT) are not permitted to facilitate visa paperwork. However, some consulates that require personal appearances will allow third parties to pick up documents on behalf of the traveler once complete. Contact CIBT’s National Customer Service Center for more information.
