Service Scope

Job arrangements or placement — We do not arrange employment or guarantee work visas.

⚠️ Important Notice

"Spain embassy Bangladesh / Spain visa center Bangladesh" arrangements can change. Confirm the live intake route (BLS vs representing mission) before booking tickets.

📊 Realistic Bangladesh Approval Rate (Official Data)

Spain Schengen approval for Bangladeshi applicants runs approximately 55-65%. Complete documentation and clear travel purpose are key. Spain tends to be slightly more lenient than Germany for first-time Schengen applicants with strong files.

goFLY's difference: We decline 50+ weak applications every year during free consultations — because approval for us means selecting the right cases AND building the right documents. Our 90%+ rate on accepted cases is what happens AFTER our pre-assessment filters out high-risk profiles.
