Our government clients

We have worked with France since the very beginnings of TLScontact in 2007, partnering with the French Embassy in Beijing, China. Today, we manage visa applications to France from centres across China and South-East Asia, as well as in Africa, the Middle East and the UK. We are also working hand in hand with the French visa authorities as they roll out the new France-Visas digital platform for visa applications.   

TLScontact started working with UK Visas & Immigration (UKVI) in 2014. Today, we run Visa Application Centres on behalf of UKVI at over 100 locations in Europe, the Russian Federation & CIS, the Middle East and Africa. We also manage the UK Immigrant Health Surcharge programme worldwide and represent His Majesty’s Passport Office (HMPO) in a number of different locations, for British nationals who live overseas and need to renew their passports.  

We have worked with the Belgian government since 2016. We manage visa applications on their behalf in the UK, the Russian Federation and several countries in Africa and the Middle East. More recently, we have introduced legalisation services at certain key locations.

TLScontact has been a partner of the German government since 2012, managing visa applications and legalisation services. Today, we run Visa Application Centres for Germany in the Middle East, the Maghreb and Sub-Saharan Africa.

We started working with the Italian government in 2009, when we signed our first contract with the Italian Embassy in Beirut, Lebanon. Today, we manage visa services on behalf of Italian diplomatic missions in the Middle East, Northern and Sub-Saharan Africa and the CIS. We work in partnership with the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MAECI) to increase digitisation in the Italian visa process and introduce new solutions for visa applicants, such as On Demand Mobile Visa services.

We manage 15 Visa Application Centres in China for The Netherlands. We are supporting our Dutch client in their digital transformation, deploying a range of new solutions to introduce more digitisation into the visa application process and streamline back office processes.

We have been working with the Swiss visa authorities since 2013 and today, we handle visa applications to Switzerland from countries including the Russian Federation, Ukraine and Turkey. We provide an end-to-end solution, including biometric enrolment, developed to meet the precise specifications of our Swiss client.
