The Visard Schengen Visa Slot Tracker watches appointment calendars, not your application status. Appointment availability differs city by city across the US.
What the Visard Schengen Visa Slot Tracker watches
Availability changes hour by hour: dates are released without a schedule and are usually taken within minutes. Visard tracks 4 Schengen destinations from the USA, checking each calendar every 3 seconds, and tells you the moment your route shows a date.
A Schengen slot in the USA 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 $40 for one destination or $60 for all destinations, for 31 days, no auto-renewal. Free 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.
$40 for one destination or $60 for all, for 31 days, one subscription for everyone travelling with you.
How does a Schengen visa appointment tracker work in the USA?Visard monitors official Schengen visa appointment portals for eligible US residents every three seconds and sends a Telegram alert when a matching slot opens. Choose your destination and consular jurisdiction, then follow the booking link from Telegram.
Our system monitors VFS Global and TLScontact 24/7, performing roughly 28,800 checks per day for each USA corridor.
One subscription watches every covered destination from your application city, and the alert names the destination, the centre and the slot.
Notifications are one subscription for everyone travelling together, for 31 days, with no auto-renewal.
Notifications start at $40 (single country) or $60 (all 4 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 :)
The remaining 3 (Austria, Iceland, Netherlands) are notifications only.
Simple, transparent. One subscription for your whole group, for 31 days, no auto-renewal.

Yes, on the Portugal route: Visard books the date inside your chosen dates and charges $100 per applicant only after the booking. Other routes are notifications, where you book the date yourself from the alert link.
4 destinations: Austria, Iceland, Netherlands, and Portugal.
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).
Notifications-only destinations typically deliver bookable slot alerts within 1 week. That is the appointment; for the decision itself, see how long a Schengen visa takes.
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; the Visard 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.
