Why appealing a negative decision is important and deadlines for filing

It is important to know: in case of receiving a negative decision (for example, regarding a residence card), you have only 14 days to file an appeal or objection (E-Visa – visa support). That is why quick legal assistance is critically important — to avoid missing the deadline and to effectively protect your rights.

How to properly prepare an appeal — key steps

Analyzing the reason for refusal

Carefully review the official letter with the reasons for the negative decision. If there are unclear points, you should consult a translator or lawyer to clearly define what exactly needs to be appealed.

Preparing documents for the appeal

Copy of the decision with detailed reasons for refusal
Evidence disproving the grounds for rejection
Official request or explanatory statement, formatted according to the authority’s requirements

Submitting the appeal on time

The appeal must be filed within 14 days from the date you receive the decision letter.
