transita

transita_compare_visas

Compare 2 or 3 visa pathways side by side: processing time, cost, validity and PR route for each, then which one is quickest to process, which costs least and which lead to permanent residency.

transita_cost_of_living

Monthly budget and rent ranges in US dollars for the cities Transita profiles, filtered by country or city. Figures are editorial estimates from public sources, each with its review date and sources. Use them for orientation, then check local listings.

transita_country_overview

Get summary data for a destination country: number of visa pathways, EU member status, score dimensions, drawbacks, top cities with rent ranges, and PR/citizenship timelines.

transita_estimate_move_cost

Total cost worksheet for one visa route. The government application fee is sourced and dated. Flights, shipping, first rent, adviser, documents and living costs until the first pay are only the person's own figures: pass the ones they know and the rest stay blank, never guessed. Returns the sourced and entered subtotals separately, how many lines are still blank, and a cost-of-living note for the destination.

transita_get_checklist

The document checklist for one visa route: how far ahead to start, what the paperwork costs beyond the government fee, the first section in full with where to get each document, and the other sections by name and document count. The complete checklist, with tracking, is part of Transita's paid action plan on the website.

transita_list_programmes

Intake status of every tracked programme in one country at once: open, paused or closed, the last selection round and cutoff, what is expected next, the official source and the date it was last read. Routes with continuous intake are counted, not listed. Use it before recommending anything in that country.

transita_list_visas

Browse the visa catalogue without a profile. Filter by country, category or whether the route leads to permanent residency. Each row gives the id, name, country, government fee, processing time and PR route, so you can pick ids for the other tools.

transita_match_visas

Find the visa routes a person qualifies for from their profile. Returns the top matches ranked by estimated eligibility, with timeline, cost, official sources and a link to track the chosen route on transita.app. EU citizens see freedom-of-movement options first. Read-only: nothing is stored. Scores are estimates, not legal advice or a decision.

transita_points_calculator

Score a profile on one points test: Canada Express Entry CRS ('crs'), Australia SkillSelect ('au'), the German Chancenkarte ('chancenkarte') or New Zealand's Skilled Migrant Category ('nz_smc'). Returns the score, a line-by-line breakdown and the threshold to compare it with. Same logic as the calculators on transita.app. An estimate, not an official assessment.

transita_programme_status

Check the live intake status of a single visa pathway: whether it is currently open, the last selection round and cutoff score (for round-based programmes like Express Entry, AU SkillSelect, or the US H-1B lottery), what is expected next, and the official source. Call this before recommending a pathway so you never send a user toward a closed or paused programme. Continuous-intake visas return an 'open' status.

transita_rankings

Rank Transita's profiled cities on one dimension such as safety, healthcare or tech jobs, highest score first, optionally within one country. Scores run 0 to 100 and are editorial estimates built from the public sources the methodology names, not official statistics.

transita_recent_rule_changes

What changed lately for one destination country: recorded changes to its visa rules or official source pages, plus dated news that cites an official source. Each item carries its source and date. An empty list is the normal answer when nothing has changed.

transita_rule_changes

Recent recorded changes to a visa's rules or to its official source page, newest first, for one visa or every visa in a country. Each change names the fields that moved, the source and the date. Whether a change is proposed or in force is only stated when a source says so.

transita_search_by_nationality

List destinations and a suggested visa pathway for citizens of a given country: 4 to 6 destinations, each with key stats, plus an FAQ. Use it when the person asks where they could move and only knows their citizenship. Returns the list of guides if the nationality has no guide yet.

transita_visa_details

Fetch full details for a single visa pathway: eligibility category, processing time, fees, validity, PR timeline, and a free preview of the document checklist (lead time, ancillary cost, first section). The full multi-section checklist is part of Transita's paid action plan, which lives on the website.

Transita — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Transita do?

It exposes 15 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: transita_compare_visas, transita_cost_of_living, transita_country_overview, transita_estimate_move_cost, transita_get_checklist, transita_list_programmes and 9 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

Is Transita working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 0 of 91 checks got a reply (0.0%), average response time 25 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

The registry lists Transita as active — why does it not respond?

The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.

How do I connect Transita?

Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does Transita need an API key?

No. Transita completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 15 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How many people use Transita?

The npm package @transita/mcp-server was installed 317 times in the last week. Week over week that is +0%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is Transita open source?

The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript, 0 stars on GitHub and 1 open issue. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at transita.app, which runs on its operator's own terms.
