TO BE OBSERVED

this is a purely discretionary act, there can be no guarantees regardless of the circumstances presented. A visa can be granted, denied, extended or
changed according to national interests, even if it is a visa previously authorized. A visa is not a right in itself, but an expectation to be admitted.
Whenever there is a doubt on the purpose of the trip; the identity of the
applicant; the applicant is aggressive or disrespectful with the Consular

request additional documents or information.

passport in person at the Embassy whenever it judges necessary.
