BLS International advises visa applicants to be cautious and vigilant regarding the following points:

- We do not recommend direct payment into personal bank accounts.
- Appointments should only be booked via the BLS website; please check the website for authorized service charges payable to BLS International.
- Always request a receipt for optional value-added services available at our Centre.
- The decision on the visa application is made solely by the relevant authorities, and BLS International has no role or influence in this process.
- If you receive such a request (in writing or verbally), please report it immediately by filling in the complaint form or by sending an email to antifraud@blsinternational.com or to the Centre Manager.
- Beware of intermediaries selling visa appointments under the name of BLS International or individually outside our Centre.
- All appointments must be booked through the BLS International website. Please do not purchase appointments through a third party; this is a fraudulent practice that BLS International strongly condemns.
