The form is rarely the hard part. Knowing whether you are doing all of it correctly is.

  • 01Knowing which requirements apply to your specific case
  • 02Getting documents into the format the authority expects
  • 03Following the submission through the right channel
  • 04Knowing what still has to happen after submission

What a missed requirement costs

  • Avoidable delays
  • Returned or rejected submissions
  • Repeated back-and-forth over documents
  • Uncertainty about what happens next

Is this the right service for you?

This is likely right for you if

  • Freelancers and IT companies exporting services.
  • You want the requirements confirmed before you commit

Another service may suit you better if

  • Your situation may call for a different service — we'll tell you if it does

Common mistakes we see

  • Starting before the requirements are confirmed
  • Submitting documents that do not match the evidence
  • Treating the submission as the end of the process

The experience, in a client’s words.

“I wanted someone to explain what was needed before asking me to pay or send documents.”
