  • I thought iVisa would facilitate my application for KAZA visas for a trip to Zambia. It was not clear to me that this would not deliver the actual visas, but just submit standard health declaration forms to the Zambian Government, which in fact I could have done myself online without paying for help from iVisa. The misunderstanding is mine but I think iVisa, whose website is cheerful but pushy, needs to be much clearer about what it can actually offer for a particular visa application.
