Verify a VisaHurry contact

As more applicants find us, scammers have started borrowing our name, logo and screenshots to approach people directly — most often on Telegram, sometimes from WhatsApp numbers that are not ours. Before you share a document, a login or a rupee with anyone claiming to be VisaHurry, check these four facts.

  • Our only WhatsApp number is +91 6377552889 — every WhatsApp link on this site opens a chat with it. There is no second number and no backup number.
  • Our only email is support@visahurry.com, and our only website is visahurry.com. Anything on another domain is a different operator.
  • Find our official Telegram communities through the community directory. Verify invite links there; a copied group name or logo does not establish ownership. Keep private case details and payment questions on our official WhatsApp or email.
  • We never message you first, never switch numbers mid-conversation, and never ask for an OTP. If any of that happens, you are not talking to us.

The appointment process

The mechanics nobody explains before you hit them live.

Process

Why the OFC appointment is normally booked before the consular interview, the roughly 30-minute window applicants report for completing the interview booking, and why interview appointments are so much harder to find than OFC appointments.
