2. Parties and Scope of Service
We will provide our Service to an individual who has individually, directly and explicitly requested a service using our online platform https://www.visahq.nl/nl-nl/. Services may also be requested by an organisation as long as the individual requesting the service has authority to bind the company on whose behalf the service has been requested.

These terms must be viewed in conjunction with our Privacy Policy.

The Terms are subject to change without prior notice, except that the Terms in force at the time you place or modify an order will govern the order in question. For the avoidance of doubt, mere viewing of (in contrast to ordering services from) the Website is subject to the Terms Of Website Use and not these Terms.

The primary services provided by VisaHQ.nl are to help you in obtaining visas and other travel documentation. We describe documents and forms you generally need to provide to achieve these aims and then submit these documents and forms duly completed by you, to the authorities or appropriate bodies. For the avoidance of doubt, if we provide services to you, you are our customer and these Terms apply. If we refer you to any other service provider, you take responsibility for reviewing any services provided and that service provider’s terms and conditions will apply for their services. We do not accept any liability for third party services and these Terms will not apply to those services.

Our order process allows you to check and amend any errors before submitting your order to us. After you place an order, you will receive an e-mail from us acknowledging that we have received your order. If your order appears to be correct, we will notify you that we have accepted your order and begun work on it. This acceptance email is titled "Your Application was Successfully Submitted to the Embassy". The contract between us will only be formed when we send you this acceptance email.

These Terms apply to any offer and any agreement between you and VisaHQ.nl and to the provision of any service provided to you by or on behalf of VisaHQ.nl in respect of but not limited to the processing of visas and/or documents for you or on your behalf. Some Terms may refer to an issuing authority, which is the body being an embassy, consulate or other agency that issue or supply the documents requested by you.

3. Fees and Payments
Payment can be made by any of the options advertised on our website. Payment shall be due when your order is placed.
You agree to pay all fees and charges for any products or services offered for sale by VisaHQ.nl or by any other vendor or service provider through VisaHQ.nl. You shall pay all applicable taxes and shipping charges relating to the purchase of any other products or services.
If payment fails or you have not paid, your application will show on our system as incomplete. Your visa specialist will notify if payment is outstanding. Your application will not be submitted until full payment is received.
Requirements and fees related to the processing of visas are subject to change, including, but not limited to, embassy consular fees, application forms and documentation required for visa issuance, which are subject to change without notice.
Payment online: By paying online you agree that your credit card(s) will be billed immediately after online verification takes place. Our secure server software encrypts all your payment card details. The process scrambles all the information, allowing no unauthorised third party to intercept the data. Your browser will confirm that you are shopping in a secure environment by showing either a locked padlock icon or an image of a padlock next to the payment details in the relevant area of the Website.

To ensure that your credit, debit or charge card is not being used without your consent, we will validate name, address and other personal information supplied by you during the order process against appropriate third party databases.

By accepting these terms and conditions you consent to such checks being made. All information provided by you will be treated securely and strictly in accordance with the GDPR.

During security checks we may ask for additional information or documentation to help support the data you supplied.

4. Placing an Order
To begin using our services, you must register as a new user or login to your account on https://www.visahq.nl/nl-nl/. VisaHQ.nl will endeavour to provide you with accurate information and to ensure that you obtain the visa for your trip for the date required in a timely manner. That notwithstanding, you should remember that all requirements to obtain the visa (documentation, fees, time frames, etc) are calculated based on general criteria and can vary according to information provided by you such as current or previous nationality, residence, gender, age, profession, recent travel, religion etc.

VisaHQ.nl does its best to correctly describe all services that appear on its website. However, VisaHQ.nl does not warrant that all the statements, definitions, and descriptions are most current, complete, accurate, and error free. Embassies/Consulates often change their requirements and fees without prior warning and changes can take effect immediately. In an event, shall any description of service or any information on our site become outdated or inaccurate, you agree to hold VisaHQ.nl harmless.

Requirements and fees related to the processing of visas are subject to change without notice. Application forms and additional documents required for visa issuance are subject to change without notice. Consular officials may request additional documentation at their discretion. They may also decline issuance of travel documents or visa without disclosing the reason for denial. Processing time for visas quoted by VisaHQ.nl are approximations based on normal circumstances, and are deemed reliable in most cases but are not guaranteed. VisaHQ.nl will not be held responsible for any delays, cancellations, financial and other losses due to denial or delay in processing. VisaHQ.nl reserves the right to decline processing of documents for any reason, including but not limited to incomplete documentation, insufficient processing time, or unusual circumstances.

By placing an order you accept these Terms. Once you place an order, you will be assigned a visa specialist and the application submission process begins. At this point your specialist will confirm that a money order covering the entire order is included or that a credit card authorisation form confirms a card has been successfully charged.

The date by which you need your passport is essential and therefore we will confirm that it is possible to process and obtain a visa within the anticipated timeframe and therefore meet your expectations. If there is enough time to process the required visa and all required documents received, the application will be reviewed for mistakes, corrections requested made and payments made your application will be submitted.

5. Processing time
Processing time for visas quoted by VisaHQ.nl are approximate and based on processing times provided by Embassies, Consulates High Commissions and the Department of State (issuing authority) under normal circumstances. Processing time should be calculated starting the next business day of the date when the documents are delivered to VisaHQ.nl for "Same Day" and "Next Day" processing options. For other processing options processing time should be calculated starting the day after submission of the documents to the issuing authority.

The issuing authority may request further explanations. The issuance of the visa is at the sole discretion of the issuing authority, and theirs is the final decision in admitting entry into the country, even when all the prescribed requirements have been met by the applicant. VisaHQ.nl cannot and does not guarantee that the issuing authority will issue the visa in a timey manner and within the specified time frame.

VisaHQ.nl will not be held responsible for any delays, cancellations, financial and other losses due to denial or delay in processing. No service fees, embassy fees, courier fees, shipping charges or any portion thereof will be refunded due to delays or denial of service.

6. Visa Delivery
When VisaHQ.nl returns your passport and supporting original documents, it is important that you confirm that the visa(s) you requested has been issued, that the visa for the intended country you are visiting is valid for the dates of arrival and departure from the country you are visiting, and that the purpose and nature of visit are as intended. In the event you detect any mistake or discrepancy you must contact VisaHQ.nl immediately.

VisaHQ.nl uses standard envelopes and other standard packing materials provided by local shipping company or another shipping company as instructed by a client. Sometimes documents get damaged or lost during shipping. VisaHQ.nl is not responsible for any damage or loss that occurs while the product is in client's possession or in transit.

8. Annuleringsrechten en restitutiebeleid
In het Nederland, als u een consument bent, heeft u mogelijk het wettelijke recht om een bestelling of contract over het algemeen te annuleren onder de Consumer Contracts Regulations tijdens de afkoelingsperiode van 14 werkdagen. Dit betekent dat gedurende de relevante periode als een consument van gedachten verandert of om welke reden dan ook besluit dat hij/zij niet verder wil gaan met een bestelling, hij/zij de leverancier van dat besluit kan informeren om de bestelling te annuleren en een terugbetaling te ontvangen. Een consument kan elke schriftelijke kennisgeving van annulering gebruiken aan VisaHQ.nl.

Echter, vanwege de dringende aard van de bestellingen geplaatst bij VisaHQ.nl, en om een veiligheidsmarge te hanteren om potentieel ernstige gevolgen bij vertragingen te voorkomen, begint VisaHQ.nl met het verlenen van de diensten bij goedkeuring van betaling en/of ontvangst van de volledige documentatie, wat kan zijn vóór het verstrijken van de wettelijke afkoelingsperiode. De consument machtigt en aanvaardt dit uitdrukkelijk. Daarom kan de consument mogelijk niet profiteren van de volledige afkoelingsperiode voor bestellingen geplaatst bij VisaHQ.nl en kan hij/zij aansprakelijk zijn voor een deel of alle kosten voor de verleende diensten door VisaHQ.nl vóór ontvangst van de annuleringskennisgeving van de consument. Bovendien zijn visa items die zijn voorbereid volgens de specificaties van de consument en als zodanig is de afkoelingsperiode en het recht op annulering mogelijk niet van toepassing.

Als uw paspoort en andere ondersteunende documenten zijn ontvangen door VisaHQ.nl en al zijn ingediend door VisaHQ.nl voor verwerking op het moment van annulering, ontvangt u geen terugbetaling; echter, als de indiening niet heeft plaatsgevonden op het moment van annulering, ontvangt u een gedeeltelijke terugbetaling gelijk aan het verschil van eventuele betaalde kosten, retour verzendkosten, en een 25 verwerkingskosten plus VAT. Er worden geen terugbetalingen gegeven voor elektronische visa (e-visa's) naar Antigua Barbuda, Argentinië, Armenië, Australië, Azerbeidzjan, Bahrein, Brazilië, Cambodja, Canada, Chili, Cuba, Egypte, Ethiopië, Gabon, Guinee-Bissau, Hong Kong, India, Ivoorkust, Kenia, Kirgizië, Lesotho, Maleisië, Moldavië, Myanmar, Nigeria, Oman, Puerto Rico, Qatar, Rusland, Rwanda, Senegal, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Tadzjikistan, Turkije, Oeganda, Oekraïne, Verenigde Arabische Emiraten, Verenigde Staten, Amerikaanse Maagdeneilanden, Vietnam en Zimbabwe. Als u uw paspoort en andere ondersteunende documenten niet heeft verzonden en wilt annuleren, ontvangt u een gedeeltelijke terugbetaling als het gaat om toegang tot Albanië, Azerbeidzjan, Bangladesh, België, Brazilië, Canada, Centraal-Afrikaanse Republiek, Estland, Georgië, Duitsland, Ghana, Griekenland, IJsland, India, Indonesië, Ierland, Italië, Malta, Mauritanië, Nepal, Nieuw-Zeeland, Nigeria, Oman, Rusland, Saint Kitts Nevis, Zuid-Korea, Taiwan, Turkije, Oekraïne, Verenigd Koninkrijk, Oezbekistan en Vietnam (terugbetaling is gelijk aan het verschil van eventuele betaalde kosten en een 25 verwerkingskosten plus VAT) en een volledige terugbetaling als het gaat om toegang tot elk ander land.

U kunt annuleren door de Annuleren/Verwijderen functie in uw account te gebruiken wanneer u bent ingelogd of door onze servicedesk te bellen. Niettegenstaande het voorgaande kunnen alle terugbetalingen alleen worden verwerkt naar dezelfde gebruikte betaling. VisaHQ.nl kan onder geen enkele omstandigheid terugbetalingen verwerken voor creditcardbetalingen ouder dan 3 maanden. In dergelijke gevallen kan VisaHQ.nl een winkeltegoed uitgeven dat van toepassing is op toekomstige aanvragen die zijn ingediend via VisaHQ.nl. Krediet kan niet worden toegepast op aanvragen die zijn ingediend via andere bureaus of aanvragen die rechtstreeks bij consulaten zijn ingediend.

Er wordt 50% van de servicekosten ingehouden bij annulering van consultatieopdrachten nadat de aanvragen zijn verwerkt. Er worden geen restituties verleend voor voltooide aanvragen.
