Mumbai: According to the Schengen Statistics Portal, Indians lost a staggering Rs 109 crore (approximately €12.1 million) due to rejected visa applications. Out of 966,687 applications submitted by Indian travelers, 151,752 were denied, with many of these rejections stemming from minor oversights or unclear processes. These setbacks often overshadow the excitement of planning a European adventure.
To address this, Atlys, a leading visa processing platform, has unveiled a spirited brand film that celebrates the sheer joy of securing a Schengen visa. The film captures the exuberance of an Indian professional whose successful visa approval transforms his daily routine—from greeting colleagues in French to seeing “art” in everyday office smudges. With a lighthearted tone, the film underscores how removing visa uncertainties allows travelers to fully embrace the anticipation of an overseas journey.
Mohak Nahta, Founder & CEO of Atlys, emphasized the brand’s commitment to streamlining the visa experience, “For many, the dream of a European getaway is cut short by a sudden rejection they never saw coming. Our goal is twofold: simplify the visa process itself and bring back the excitement and anticipation that come with international travel. This new brand film and our reimagined Schengen experience are both part of that larger mission to make crossing borders easier and more uplifting for everyone.”
Atlys has revamped its Schengen application process, offering a more seamless and transparent experience:
- Step-by-Step Guidance: A simplified application process that eliminates guesswork.
- Real-Time Appointment Updates: Ensuring applicants stay informed at every stage.
- “What If?” Simulator: A unique tool that helps applicants understand different documentation scenarios and potential outcomes.
- AI-Driven Assistance: Instant answers to queries at any time of day.
- Fully Managed Service: A hands-off option for those who prefer experts to handle every detail.
By prioritizing clarity, transparency, and user-friendly innovations, Atlys aims to reduce visa rejections and financial losses for Indian travelers. With these enhancements, the platform transforms a traditionally cumbersome visa process into a smooth, predictable, and stress-free experience—ensuring that the journey to Europe is just as enjoyable as the destination itself.
