DO NOT FALL INTO FRAUD AND BEWARE OF SCAMS !

DEAR APPLICANTS
Due to Easter holidays on April 17th and 18th, the Consulate General in Moscow will not accept and process visa applications. Visa application center will work on these holidays. Applications can only be submitted through Prime-time service and Premium Lounge service.

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 bly 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.

Travel Insurance certificate must be submitted at the visa application center as it is a mandatory requirement for applicants travelling to Spain. You may get your travel insurance from any authorized insurance company or you may click here if you wish to avail it.

Applicants are required to book their appointments only from the Website. Contact Centre will provide only information services, not appointments. If you already have an appointment and would like to book for a new date, please cancel the existing one through our website, and then proceed to make the new booking.

EU family members have the right to go directly to the Consulate/Embassy to manage their visa application with prior appointment.

Submission of documents to the Spanish visa application center is possible only with personal attendance, or by the closest members of the family providing a proof of kinship. Beware of scammers offering submission services without a personal attendance at the BLS Spain Visa Application Center.

From 08th November 2021, every applicant over 12 years old applying for a visa is required to submit biometric data in person at the Spanish Visa Application Centre, regardless of the period of previously submitted biometric data. Exceptions are applications for minor children who at the time of the trip will not be 12 years old.
