Website & Service Terms

Terms of Service

These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of AfricaTourVisa websites, travel information, visa-support services, application assistance, payment functions, travel planning, accommodation, transport services and other services made available through AfricaTourVisa.

1. Agreement to these Terms of Service

By accessing AfricaTourVisa or purchasing, requesting or using an AfricaTourVisa service, you agree to these Terms of Service together with any service-specific conditions presented during the relevant order, application or checkout process.

If you do not agree to these terms, you should not purchase or use services that require acceptance of them.

Different services may have additional conditions. Where additional service-specific terms apply, they should be read together with these general Terms of Service.

2. Independent service status

Important: AfricaTourVisa is an independent travel and visa-support service. We are not an embassy, consulate, immigration authority, border authority, government department or tourism ministry.

AfricaTourVisa may provide information, administrative support, document assistance, travel planning and other services relating to travel in Africa.

Where a government application is involved, the relevant government authority remains responsible for official requirements, processing, approval, refusal, validity and immigration decisions.

Purchasing AfricaTourVisa assistance does not make AfricaTourVisa the issuing authority for any visa, permit or travel authorization.

3. Eligibility to use our services

You should only purchase or use services where you are legally able to enter into the relevant transaction or are acting with appropriate authority for another person.

If you submit an application for another traveler, family member, employee or minor, you confirm that you have appropriate authority to provide the relevant information and request the service on that person's behalf.

Minors should not independently submit payment information, identity documents or visa applications without appropriate adult involvement.

5. Customer responsibilities

You are responsible for ensuring that information provided to AfricaTourVisa is accurate, complete and current.

You should carefully verify information including:

  • full legal name;
  • nationality;
  • date of birth;
  • passport number;
  • passport issue and expiry dates;
  • travel dates;
  • destination;
  • purpose of travel;
  • contact information;
  • supporting documents;

  • payment amount and currency.

Incorrect or incomplete information can lead to delays, additional charges, application problems, inability to provide the service or refusal by an external authority.

6. Applications and supporting documents

Where a service requires an application form or supporting documents, you agree to provide genuine and accurate information.

You must not knowingly provide:

  • false identity information;
  • forged passports;
  • altered supporting documents;
  • fraudulent travel information;
  • information belonging to another person without authorization.

AfricaTourVisa may pause or decline a service where required information is missing, appears inconsistent or raises reasonable fraud or security concerns.

7. Visa and immigration decisions

AfricaTourVisa does not control whether a visa, eVisa, electronic travel authorization, permit or entry permission is approved or refused.

Official decisions remain with the relevant government authority.

No guarantee of approval Payment for an AfricaTourVisa support service does not guarantee approval of any visa, permit, immigration authorization or entry at a border.

Government authorities may request additional documents, conduct additional checks, change processing times or change eligibility requirements.

8. Payments and fees

Paid services may involve AfricaTourVisa service fees and, where applicable, government or third-party charges.

Customers should review the amount, currency and service summary before confirming payment.

Additional payment terms are explained in our Payment Policy .

You confirm that you are authorized to use the payment method provided.

Your bank or payment provider may apply its own currency-conversion charges, security checks or transaction fees.

9. Service delivery

Processing and delivery times may vary depending on:

  • service type;
  • customer response time;
  • document completeness;
  • payment confirmation;
  • government processing;
  • supplier availability;
  • public holidays;

10. Cancellations and refunds

Refund eligibility depends on the service, work already completed, costs already incurred, third-party charges and applicable consumer rights.

Some services may become partially or fully non-refundable after processing begins, subject to applicable law.

A visa refusal or government delay does not automatically mean that AfricaTourVisa's service fee is refundable where the purchased support service has already been delivered or substantially performed.

Full information is available in our Refund Policy .

These may include:

  • government authorities;
