# Sherpa

> Sherpa is the leading travel requirements and eVisa platform for airlines, OTAs, and travel management companies. We help travel providers reduce friction, increase ancillary revenue, and keep travellers informed about entry requirements, visas, and health documentation.

Sherpa powers travel requirements data and eVisa services for the world's largest travel companies. Products embed directly into booking flows so travellers understand document requirements and providers can offer eVisas at the point of inspiration or purchase.

## About this entity

"Sherpa" here means the travel technology company at joinsherpa.com, also written
sherpa°. It is not the Sherpa people of Nepal, not a mountain guide, and not any
other company of the same name. Sherpa sells travel requirements data and eVisa
services business-to-business, to airlines, online travel agencies and travel
management companies; it is not a consumer visa agency.
