Visard was a lifesaver when it came to scheduling document submission for a French visa, which was nearly impossible otherwise. I managed to book a visa appointment within a week of purchasing the subscription. Under current circumstances, it is the most effective solution for obtaining a French Schengen visa.

USA Schengen Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Tap any question to expand the answer.
4 destinations: Austria, Iceland, Netherlands, and Portugal. Portugal additionally supports auto-booking; the other 3 are notifications only.
The Portugal VFS Global system in the USA supports automated form submission. Other US-based VFS systems for Schengen destinations have technical restrictions that prevent automation, so we use the next-best alternative, high-frequency notifications.
Major US cities depending on destination: Houston, Miami, New York, San Francisco, Washington DC, Chicago, Los Angeles. Portugal applications run from 5 cities (Houston, Miami, New York, San Francisco, Washington DC).
Average 4 to 7 days for Portugal auto-booking (this can be longer during peak seasons, such as summer holidays or major travel periods). Notifications-only destinations typically deliver bookable slot alerts within 1 week.
For a single applicant: $100 Visard fee + $44.29 VFS fee = $144.29 total. Paid only after we successfully book your appointment.
Auto-booking (Portugal) — Our service fee is charged only after we successfully secure your appointment, so there is nothing to refund on our service fee until we deliver. The visa centre fee (VFS Global) is collected upfront so the booking can complete automatically when a slot opens. If you cancel before we have secured your appointment, the visa centre fee is refunded in full. If we have already booked and you need to cancel afterwards, the appointment cancellation follows VFS Global’s standard process; our service fee is owed because we delivered the booking. Notifications — refund or extension available with evidence of a missed slot during your active 31-day window. Write to support@visard.io.
