1. Engagement of National Visas Services
The National Visas Services do not guarantee any outcome in relation to any visa application you may lodge in the future.
ESTA (Electronic System for Travel Authorisation):
Upon completion of an ESTA application form provided on National Visas website, your request for an ESTA will be processed within one (1) working day. Your ESTA grant is subject to approval from the American Government. In the event that additional information is required to process your application, we will contact you though the Online Message Centre using the details provided by you in your ESTA Application. If the American Government cannot grant an ESTA visa application online and you are requested to contact an American Embassy to have the visa processed the affected ESTA visa application will be refunded. Please note that if you do not respond to any requests we submit for further details, your ESTA application will not be processed and your payment will not be refunded. Payment for the ESTA service charge is to recover the costs associated with providing this service. Regardless of whether you decide later that you no longer require the visa or have a current visa the service charge has been incurred and is not refundable. As advised above, your ESTA request is processed within one (1) working day. In the event that the request processed on our website establishes that you have an existing ESTA, the fee you have paid is non-refundable. In such circumstances, we will issue you with confirmation of your current ESTA status and the charge is applied to recover the use of our system resources. Please do not arrange any travel to America until you have received email notification that your ESTA request has been approved by the American Government.
