So if it costs £9 to do it yourself why does just you and travelsphere charge £29?

Yes Lucinda I wondered that too! Even with an admin fee it seems excessive.

Unfortunately I had to renew mine this year even though my old one was still valid. I got a new passport and that is the one thing they won't allow to be amended.

Thanks Lucinda for asking that question!!

Hi Lucinda,

We charge a handling fee for the administration of any Visa's that we arrange on behalf of the customer.

Arranging a Visa for a particular country does not have to be purchased through Just You or Travelsphere - it is an option for those who want the piece of mind before they travel.

Kindest regards,

Julia

I know people who have been excessively charged when using other sites.. for basically filling in an easy form.

Hi PaulineD

Are you by any chance looking at a holiday which flies to the US?

ESTA stands for Electronic System for Travel Authorization and is required to travel to the US. In practical terms it is a reference number which the US authorities will have on their system when you arrive.

You can apply for this directly through the U.S. government's official web portal for all ESTA transactions (at least 72 hours before travel and is valid for two years), alternatively we can obtain one for you - which is why you will see it in the booking process.

I hope that information helps.

Kindest regards,

Julia

Hi Julia.

Yes, it was one of the holidays to America.

Thank you for you prompt reply.
