Check your visa eligibility: passport, purpose, funds and travel history
Check your visa eligibility online: answer a few questions about your passport, purpose, funds and travel history to see your score, routes and a filing date.
How the eligibility check works
The check asks eight questions, one at a time, and updates a score out of 100 after every answer: passport, purpose, destination, travel timing, funds, immigration history, home ties and travel history. A ninth question appears only when the purpose needs it, for example an admission letter for students or a sponsoring employer for workers. The score is weighted by destination, so the same answers produce different bands for a Thailand e-visa and a Schengen sticker visa.
What does the score mean?
| Band | Score | What it usually means | Next step |
|---|---|---|---|
| Low risk | 70 and above | The profile matches what the destination usually approves | Apply on the published timeline |
| Medium risk | 45 to 69 | One or two factors are weak, most often funds history or ties | Fix the listed factor first |
| High risk | Under 45 | Several factors are weak or there is a past refusal to explain | Build the file before paying a non-refundable government fee |
The band is a planning tool, not a prediction. Approval is always the government's decision. Decision by the date we quote, or your Vistolane fee back. We can't guarantee approval; no one can.
Questions, answered
Is the eligibility check free?
Yes. It runs in your browser, takes about two minutes and the score, band and factor list appear immediately. You do not need an account to see the result; an account is only needed if you later want to track an application.
Is my data stored?
Your answers stay in this browser session so you can resume where you left off. Nothing is attached to an account unless you create one afterwards, and nothing is sold or shared with partners.
Does a high score mean my visa will be approved?
No. Approval is always the government's decision and no tool or agent can promise it. The score estimates how a consulate is likely to read the factors it refuses on most often, so you can strengthen them before you pay a non-refundable government fee.
How many questions are there?
Eight core questions: passport, purpose, destination, travel timing, funds, immigration history, home ties and travel history. One follow-up appears depending on the purpose, for example whether a student holds an admission letter.
How accurate is it?
It is a rules-based estimate built from the refusal grounds consulates publish: insufficient funds, weak ties, unclear purpose, a poor travel record. It does not predict an individual officer's decision. Treat the band as a to-do list, not a verdict.
What happens next?
You see your band, the factors that moved it and the destination's document list. From there you can fix the weak points, read the destination page with its live fee and timeline, or start the application with the government fee at the official rate plus a fixed Vistolane filing fee.
