About Company
We exceed deadlines, industry leaders in document preparation speed. 100% approved applications thanks to streamlined processes.
Thanks to our own teams in different countries, we quickly prepare various documents. This significantly accelerates the process and reduces timelines.
We work without intermediaries, so we can offer competitive prices and transparent terms without additional markups.
The company has been operating since 1999 and has processed over 1,500 documents for clients from different countries — our experience allows us to understand the process down to the smallest detail.
A client — a pensioner from Russia who owns property in Bulgaria — approached us wishing to simplify regular trips to Bulgaria and free movement within the Schengen area given the increasingly complex visa process. We arranged a Bulgarian residence permit for him on the basis of his pension, prepared the full document package for the D visa, and accompanied him to the submission. He successfully received a 6-month visa. Upon arrival in Bulgaria, we helped him apply for a residence permit, and within a few weeks he obtained a Bulgarian residence permit valid for one year and renewable annually. He now regularly visits Bulgaria, lives in his property, travels freely around Europe, and we continue to support him with status renewals.
A client from Georgia approached us with the goal of moving to France with his family, opening a company there, and running a business. We proposed a French Passeport Talent – Créateur d'entreprise residence permit. To this end we prepared a business plan, a justification of the project's economic value for France, and a full dossier for submission to the Ministry of the Economy. After the project was approved, the client and his family received D visas valid for 3 months and arrived in France. We assisted with setting up the company, making the required investments, and applying for the Passeport Talent residence permit, which they received for 4 years. The client now lives in France with his family and is growing the business, while we continue to support his operations, including accounting support and document preparation for future residence permit renewals.
A client approached us wishing to obtain long-term status in one of the European countries. While analysing her situation, we found that her grandmother had lived in Brest between 1918 and 1939 and was of Polish origin. We carried out archival research, confirmed her ethnicity, and arranged a Karta Polaka for her — a document confirming Polish heritage. On the basis of the Karta Polaka, the client applied for a Polish permanent residence permit and successfully received it. She is currently preparing to confirm her knowledge of the Polish language at A2 level so that she can later apply for Polish citizenship.
A client from Russia with property on the French Riviera and an account with a French bank contacted us, having trouble obtaining long-term Schengen visas. To preserve access to the account and continue travelling to France, we arranged a French residence permit for financially independent persons, issued for one year and not requiring permanent residency. As a result, the client travels freely around France and the Schengen area and continues to use their bank account.

A family of entrepreneurs who regularly travel to Europe, the United States, Canada, and Australia faced growing difficulties obtaining visas and approached us for an alternative solution. After reviewing several options, we suggested Paraguayan citizenship, which can be obtained in about 2.5 years with no investment, residency, or language requirements. The family needed only three visits to the country, and during the last one they received their passports, allowing them to travel freely around the world and respond quickly to their business needs.
