APVI Terms & Conditions

PLEASE READ THIS USER AGREEMENT AND THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS SITE.

Your use of this site is expressly conditioned on your acceptance of the following terms and conditions. By using this site, you signify your assent to these terms and conditions. If you do not agree with any part of the following terms and conditions, you must not use this site.

1. GUARANTEE. We hold ourselves to the highest standards of customer service and do what is best for our clients. Through careful and active attention to our customers' needs, we have developed the most innovative, easy-to-use, and systematic website that prevents processing delays. Please follow these steps carefully, and delays should not occur. In the highly unlikely event APVI does not return your completed passport or visa to you in time for your trip, we will refund all service fees paid to us (excluding fees paid to the US Department of State or Foreign Embassies) unless such delay is caused by circumstances beyond our control. Such circumstances include:

  • Delay caused by missing requirements (i.e., photos, Letter of Authorization, payment, unsigned application, etc.)
  • Delay caused by shipping companies (FedEx, UPS, DHL, USPS, etc.)
  • FedEx First Overnight (Must be delivered before 8:30 am for 1-3 day passport or visa processing). Please choose No Signature Required ensuring that your package is delivered on time.
  • FedEx Priority Overnight (Must be delivered before 10:30 am). Any mail received after 10:30 am will be processed the next day.
  • Delay caused by internal operations of the US Department of State or Foreign Embassies. For Expedite Service, the processing time begins when your documents are received by our office provided that they are received before 8:30 am. 
  • The State Department and All Embassies reserve the right to extend the expedite period in times of extreme volume, staff shortages, or equipment malfunction. 
  • Delay caused by the suspension of a passport or visa application by the US Department of State or Foreign Embassies.
Your passport application is likely to get suspended by the passport office if:
  • You are behind on child support payments.
  • You owe the government a repatriation loan.
  • You are on court-ordered probation which restricts international travel.
  • Additional documents are requested by the passport office (additional ID, high school yearbook, etc.) to confirm your identity further.
APVI. is not responsible for any documents accidentally held or lost by the passport office or foreign embassies. In the highly unlikely event this occurs, APVI will assist in recovering the missing documents or help you apply for new ones.

2. REFUND POLICY. This refund policy covers the expenses incurred by APVI on behalf of its clients once an order is placed.

  • APVI does not charge any cancellation fees provided that the cancellation is requested within 24 hours from the time the order is placed and provided that no reservation was provided.
  • No refunds are available after a reservation is provided.
  • No refunds are available after 24 hours from the time the order is placed if a reservation has not been provided.
