As a first-time applicant, I honestly had no idea where to start. The itinerary builder matched what the embassy asked for almost line by line. The VFS staff commented that my file was well-organised. It's not flashy โ it just works, which is exactly what I wanted. Honestly felt like having a patient friend walk you through the process. The explanations of each field are short and human, not legalese. Honestly one of the least stressful bureaucratic experiences I've had.
