This tracker watches appointment calendars, not your application status. We check TLScontact, VFS Global and BLS every 3 seconds and message you on Telegram the moment a slot opens.
What the tracker watches
Availability changes hour by hour: dates are released without a schedule and are usually taken within minutes. Visard tracks 20 Schengen destinations from London, Manchester and Edinburgh, checking each calendar every 3 seconds, and tells you the moment your route shows a date.
A Schengen slot in the UK is usually taken within a minute of appearing, often faster. Refreshing every few minutes shows you the calendar after it has already been booked. A 3-second check plus a Telegram push within a second is the difference between seeing a date and getting it.
Visard has no free tier: notifications cost £35 for one destination or £65 for all 20 covered destinations, for 31 days, no auto-renewal. Free Telegram channels exist and post every opening to everyone at once, so the slot is usually gone by the time you open the link. A Visard alert is private and filtered to your route.
Visard runs as a Telegram bot: you start it, choose destination and centre, and receive private alerts within a second of a date appearing. It has been used for 15,000+ appointments and is reviewed on Trustpilot. If you cannot be at the screen, auto-booking books the date for you and charges only after success.
How does a Schengen visa appointment tracker work?Visard monitors official Schengen visa appointment portals for UK residents every three seconds, then sends a Telegram alert the moment a slot opens. Choose your destination, select notifications or auto-booking, and manage the appointment through Telegram.
Our system monitors VFS Global and TLScontact 24/7, performing roughly 28,800 checks per day for each UK corridor.
The moment a slot opens for an eligible destination, the appointment is secured in under a second, day or night, without you being at the screen.
Auto-booking is £100 first applicant plus £50 each additional, charged only after your appointment is confirmed.
Notifications start at £35 (single country) or £65 (all 20 covered destinations). One subscription covers everyone in your group.
From Telegram to confirmed Schengen appointment in four steps. Average time: 4 to 7 days.
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.
I called several agencies and was told that slots for France are only available in 3 months. The bot is excellent, highly recommend! A support team contacted me the very next day after the payment, asked if everything was okay, and then answered all my questions instantly :)
20 of them support real-time slot notifications. Auto-booking is available for 17 of them. Italy, Spain, and Switzerland are notifications-only at the moment.
Simple, transparent. Notifications is one subscription for your whole group. Auto-booking is per applicant, our service fee paid only after success.

Visard tracks 20 Schengen destinations from London, Manchester and Edinburgh, checking TLScontact, VFS Global and BLS every 3 seconds, and sends a Telegram alert within a second of a slot appearing. Notifications cost £35 for one destination or £65 for all, for 31 days; auto-booking books the slot for you and charges £100 per applicant only after success.
Yes. Visard checks the appointment calendars every 3 seconds and sends a Telegram message within a second of a slot appearing, for the destination and centre you chose. You then book on the visa centre website, or let auto-booking book it for you.
Visard runs as a Telegram bot: you start it, choose destination and centre, and receive private alerts filtered to your choice. It has been used for 15,000+ appointments and is reviewed on Trustpilot. Public Telegram channels post every opening to everyone at once, so slots are usually gone before you open the link.
Not from Visard: notifications start at £35 for one destination for 31 days. Free public channels exist, but they broadcast to everyone at once and are not filtered to your centre. Auto-booking has no upfront Visard fee, £100 per applicant is charged only after the appointment is booked.
Yes. A slot is usually taken within a minute of appearing. Visard checks every 3 seconds and pushes a Telegram alert within a second, so you see the date before the calendar is refreshed by everyone else. Have your documents ready and book straight from the alert link.
It changes hour by hour. Visard tracks 20 destinations from London, Manchester and Edinburgh every 3 seconds and alerts you on Telegram the moment your chosen destination shows a date, so you do not need to check each calendar yourself.
The easiest destination changes week by week with demand and how many slots each consulate releases. The practical way to get one is an alert on the destination you actually need, since most dates are taken within minutes; and remember you must apply to the country where you spend the most nights, so “easiest” only helps if your itinerary allows it.
Notifications send you a Telegram alert when a slot opens; you book manually on VFS or TLScontact. Auto-booking secures the appointment for you the moment a slot opens, and the official confirmation arrives in Telegram. Auto-booking is available for 17 of our 20 covered UK corridors. Notifications start at £35 for one destination or £65 for all 20; auto-booking starts at £100 first applicant. France and Germany are listed but not currently covered from the UK.
These corridors only support notifications because the visa centre systems for these countries have specific technical limitations. Notifications still work, our average user books these countries within 1 week after receiving slot alerts. France and Germany are separate cases: they are not covered from the UK at all at the moment.
Notifications work for Switzerland from the UK today, you receive Telegram alerts the moment a slot opens at TLScontact and book manually. Switzerland from the UK is notifications only.
Average from signup to confirmed appointment: 4 to 7 days (this can be longer during peak seasons, such as summer holidays or major travel periods). Some bookings happen within hours during high-availability windows. That is the appointment; for the decision itself, see how long a Schengen visa takes.
For notifications, one subscription covers your entire group, everyone receives alerts for the same flat fee. For auto-booking, pricing is per applicant: £100 first plus £50 each additional. We attempt same-day or same-time slots so your family can attend together. For TLScontact-managed routes (France, Germany, Switzerland from UK), there are per-account applicant limits: France allows max 3 applicants in one account at any UK city. Germany and Switzerland allow max 3 in London but only 1 in Manchester or Edinburgh. We follow these rules and split groups when needed.
You must call TLScontact, request deletion of the existing application, and create separate compliant applications. There is no other workaround for this case.
UK residents need a valid passport, biometric residence proof (eVisa share code or UKVI account screenshot for non-British citizens), travel insurance, accommodation proof, and proof of financial means. Each destination has specific requirements, see our guide to the documents you need for a Schengen visa.
Auto-booking — 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 or TLScontact) 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 the appointment and you need to cancel afterwards, the appointment cancellation follows VFS or TLScontact’s standard process; our service fee is owed because we delivered the booking. Notifications — If our system missed a slot during your active 31-day window, write to support@visard.io with evidence and we issue a refund or extension.
