ItsEasy.com Passport & Visa Services, a passport and visa concierge service, has unveiled a Corporate Passport Management Program, which the company said is designed to simplify how businesses navigate the complexities of international travel documents. The tool, according to an announcement, helps corporations greatly reduce business-related travel costs by helping to prevent rush passport and visa courier fees.
The program features corporate complimentary passport renewal reminders, ensuring that employees stay ahead of their passport expiration dates. Corporate travel managers, human resources managers and other team leaders can sign up for the program and simply upload employee passport expiration dates, employee names and/or employee numbers in bulk, for the utmost in discretion.
These reminders help protect the company against exorbitant, last-minute, passport courier industry rush fees, according to the announcement. Depending upon the time of the year, these avoidable fees can cost the company up to, and exceed, approximately $1,000 per rush renewal, which is added to the cost and embarrassment of the wasted value of labor and having to miss or cancel important business trips due to expired travel documents. These complimentary passport renewal reminders are issued a year in advance of one’s renewal date and every month thereafter to ensure compliance with the six-month passport validity rule.
David Alwadish, CEO, said that last year’s unprecedented backlog underscored the importance of prioritizing passport renewals and staying on top of expiration dates. The new program, he said, “empowers companies to avoid costly business trip delays and cancellations, ensuring employees are ready for international travel at a moment’s notice.”
