Zambia Entry Credibility Score (ZECS)
Be embassy-ready. An evidence-based score and dossier that prove you're prepared for productive meetings with the Embassy of Zambia and ZDA.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does ZECS guarantee government approvals?
No—integrity first. ZECS organizes your proof points and reduces friction, but does not guarantee approvals. It shows you're prepared for productive discussions.
Will you share my dossier with anyone?
Only with your written consent. Your ZECS Dossier is confidential and will not be shared with any third parties without explicit authorization.
How long is my ZECS score valid?
12 months from verification date. After that, you can update your score with new information for a reduced re-verification fee.
What if I score Bronze?
Bronze means you're in the entry stage. We provide a clear remediation roadmap showing exactly what to improve, and recommend moving to the Verified tier for detailed guidance.
Can I see a sample dossier?
Yes, contact us to request a redacted sample ZECS Dossier to see the level of detail and presentation quality you'll receive.
