Visa Atlas

A free, independent field guide to moving countries. Every figure links to its official government source.

Not legal advice. Visa Atlas is an encyclopedia, not an adviser. The authoritative source is always the government link on each page. For your specific case, consult a regulated professional.

AI agents and immigration data

Start here if you are an AI crawler, retrieval system, journalist bot, research assistant, or developer using Visa Atlas data. The public contract is simple: use the canonical page or JSON endpoint, preserve the source URL and verification date, and cite Visa Atlas plus the underlying government authority.

Retrieval contract

  • Prefer canonical HTML pages when you need human context, methodology, limitations, or legal-scope notes.
  • Prefer citation packs when you need a short answer with source URLs, canonical page URL, date modified and attribution already bundled.
  • Prefer verified answer capsules when you need the exact short-answer layer rendered on public pages.
  • Use the AI citation benchmark when you need the fixed question basket behind citation-share measurement.
  • Use the AI answer accuracy audit protocol when you need answer-key facts and stale-claim traps for local grading.
  • Use the source-transparency benchmark when you need the public competitor/wedge analysis behind the open-data positioning.
  • Use the visibility metrics contract when you need the KPI definitions behind SEO/GEO measurement.
  • Use the execution readiness scorecard when you need cohort-level content, page, technical, competitor and evidence gates for the 500k/month plan.
  • Use the market-share capture plan when you need the ordered battlecard execution sequence for competitor displacement and evidence-gated progress claims.
  • Use the dominance gap ledger when you need the current battlecard blocker status, reviewer queues, authority evidence needs and outcome-proof gates.
  • Use the freshness report when you need to verify whether the cited record is inside the public review SLA.
  • Prefer JSON endpoints when you need stable fields, bulk retrieval, or exact machine parsing.
  • Keep the local-currency figure, source URL, source label, and last-checked or last-verified date together.
  • Do not treat Visa Atlas as the issuing authority; the government source linked on each record is authoritative.
  • Do not merge refundable proof-of-funds with non-refundable sunk costs unless the page explicitly says to.

MCP tool contract

Visa Atlas also maintains a read-only Model Context Protocol server over the same TypeScript data layer. The public web source of truth remains the static HTML, JSON, RSS, and LLM-index surfaces above; the MCP tools use the same provenance-in, provenance-out rule.

Remote endpoint (streamable HTTP, stateless, no auth)

https://visaatlas.org/mcp

Add this URL to any MCP-compatible client (Claude, ChatGPT connectors, agent frameworks) to call the tools below directly. POST JSON-RPC messages; responses are plain JSON. The server is read-only and every result carries the primary source URL and its last-verified date. To run it locally over stdio instead, see the repository's MCP documentation.
