The Company
20+ years of experience in the passport & visa industry
Passport & Visa Advisors, LLC is an advisory and expediting service dedicated to assisting international travelers who wish to ensure their documents are in order before submitting their applications to either an expeditor or the US Passport Agency for processing.
PVA was created to serve clients with high-quality, face-to-face service levels not usually found in the passport and visa expediting industry. Following the events of September 11th, international travel dropped significantly and smaller passport and visa expediting firms closed or sold to a larger competitor. In the subsequent years expeditors have continued to expand creating a need for a return to quality customer service.
PVA’s proposition value is to cater to the needs of travelers who desire and appreciate personalized service from knowledgeable and understanding professionals. PVA advisors take time to instruct and educate clients on the travel requirements for international destinations rather than the traveler having to rely only on a website and a call center for support.
The owners of Passport & Visa Advisor worked almost exclusively for A Briggs Passport & Visa Expeditors for the better part of a decade. The A Briggs office in Charlotte successfully served individual travelers, corporate clients, new US citizens, and business persons since 2006. In our new Matthews, NC offices we are ready to serve your international travel needs, whether they’re consultative or full service.

Located at 250 N. Trade Street in the heart of Matthews, NC historic district, The Johnson Building is the home of Kristopher’s Bar & Grill and the offices of Passport & Visa Advisors. The Johnson Building is the only three story building in Matthews and the restaurant has been a local favorite to this community since 1988. If you get lost coming to our offices, just tell your good Samaritan that you need to get to Kristopher’s. Everyone knows where we are!
