Dear ladies and gentlemen,

ÖVKG has kept the fees for visa processing constant for the last 3 years.

We have accepted all index adjustments from our third-party service providers and other price adjustments to date without passing them on to our customers.

Due to the current situation around COVID and the resulting increase in expenses, we are unfortunately forced to implement a price increase for the first time from January 1, 2021.

Please find HERE the new price list for newly booked orders from 1.1.2021.

We ask for your understanding.

MfG

Your ÖVKG Team
