Sarada Veluthenveedu at CIBT visas was utterly helpful and calm. It was our organisations first time in using the service and I was pressed for time. However, Sarada was very responsive, reassuring and a really helpful guide in the processing cycle.
Despite our last minute submission, my colleagues received their visas ahead of their trip, and our contingency plan was not actioned.
I will continue to use their services henceforth and am truly grateful for the support received.

Outstanding and honest service.
Always available on the phone and email. And the process in the embassy was faultless - in and out in 10 minutes. Really excellent - thank you again

The service was excellent from the minute we submitted the visa online form. There was always someone on the other end of the line when we had a query and always dealt with promptly.

CIBT have provided a quick, efficient and very professional service. I would recommend to anyone who is wanting to apply for an overseas visa.

The process was incredibly user friendly. Form on-line application completion through submission, review, acceptance, submission to the embassy, making the reservation for the in-person visit to the VISA centre, I was out within 7 minutes of arrival! Received the confirmation that my passport was dispatched for return yesterday, tracking details provided, and already this morning I can see the passport is at my local Royal Mail depot, with delivery confirmed for this morning in line with the expected return date.
A particularly useful feature was the photograph upload to the CBIT portal where immediate feedback on photo acceptability was received, avoiding any delays as experienced with the older traditional process!!
Excellent service from start to finish.

Super helpful staff who explained the process and progressed each stage of my application

There is prompt feedback at all points of the process in getting a visa. I have done it independently in the past and has been onerous. With CIBT the process was straightforward and whatever CIBT said they would do is exactly what they did in the timeframe they said it would be done. This was the case even if my assigned agent was off sick.

I had a fantastic experience working with CIBT Visas for my business entry visa to Nigeria. From the outset, my consultant Iain Habes was incredibly professional, responsive, and supportive. He kept me informed with regular updates and was always available to answer questions or clarify the process.
When there were issues with the consulate’s payment system, Iain went above and beyond to assist, keeping me reassured and doing everything possible to move things forward. As soon as the issue was resolved, he acted immediately to ensure my visa application was processed without delay.
Thanks to Iain and the CIBT team, what could have been a stressful experience was handled smoothly and efficiently. I highly recommend their services to anyone needing reliable visa support.

This was my first time using CIBT and I was thoroughly impressed. Amy Brown extremely professional, with clear, prompt, and informative communication throughout. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend their services to others.

Our Business use CIBT Visas for all our Visa needs. It was my first experience though obtaining visas for travel for work, in this case 3 people travelling to China on pretty short notice. Iain was our advisor at CIBT and I cannot fault the service provided. Iain knows his stuff, was patient and informative with my numerous questions and ensured everything went smoothly. Iain was in regular contact with email and phone calls, which was very reassuring. Would highly recommend.

This is the second time I've used CIBT and the second time I've been very impressed.
They have helped every step of the way with my Chinese visa applications.
Extremely prompt in getting back to me, almost as if I'm their only customer.
First time round I met the Cibt rep at the Chinese embassy and felt like a vip, more recently I dropped off my passport at their offices and was greeted with smiles and professionalism.
A great service all round

I found the experience of applying for a Visa on behalf of my manager extremely easy; the personal consultant, Iain Habes, was super helpful and his timely updates and communication were much appreciated. A very efficient service, I would highly recommend this, it really takes the stress out of the application process.

I was working within very tight timelines due to lots of international travel and needing my passport so I need to use the express premium service. My advisor, Laura, was very helpful explaining everything clearly and was very responsive. I really wasn't sure if I would have my passport and visa in time without it impacting one of my trips but Laura and the team came through! It is an expensive service but was necessary for my travel schedule. If travel schedules are not complicated and you are able to plan ahead, the extra cost won't be necessary. Communication throughout was excellent and I would recommend CBIT.

CIBT Visas:
Efficient service. Did what they said they were going to do and communicated clearly throughout both email and phone. Visa delivered on time. Quite expensive I would say, but removed the hassle.
My personal visa consultant Laura was excellent. From the time I put the order in she called me the same day to introduce herself and just talk me through the process as well as questions on my trip and time lines. Her email instructions were clear and concise also chasing me to ensure I provided the her the correct document after she notices an error on my part. My appointment I was met with CiBT getting my application form together and checking my passport then directed to a booth which was seamless and less than 5 mins to get a decision on my China visa there and then.
I even changed my lead time to less than 3 weeks and Laura managed to get my visa overnight couriered the day before my flight.
Used the UK CIBT premium service to arrange for a Chinese visa. The service provided was amazingly professional, I was assigned a dedicated and highly professional visa specialist who completely took care of everything. Step by step instructions were given in order for a smooth process and daily updates were given to keep me updated of the visa process from start all the way to delivery. Would highly recommend using CIBT especially if time is the essence and you require the visa in short time.
Used CIBT to obtain our Chinese visas. Sharon Burrows was brilliant very helpful and kept us informed all the way. She guided me through the process and we are now ready for our trip. Thank you so much Sharon
