Launched in 2022 by Vijayendra Bawa and Dhruv Kumar, Visa2Fly is trying to drag this outdated process into the modern age. The startup leverages smart automation, real-time status updates, and tight integrations with partner platforms to simplify how travelers get their visas.
Its growing list of collaborators includes names like ixigo, Acko, NiyoGlobal, SpiceJet, and WeGo—companies that now embed Visa2Fly’s solutions right into their ecosystems. With coverage for over 70 countries—from the UAE and Vietnam to the UK and much of Europe—Visa2Fly is aiming to make cross-border travel smoother from the moment you plan your trip.
