I notice a discrepancy between, on one hand, the French and Dutch versions, and on the other the English.
In the French version, the speaker is begging for a visa. In the other he just politely asks for one.
The polite French for "Please give me a visa" is "Je vous prie de me donner un visa" or "Donnez-moi un visa s'il vous plait"

Yea, that's true. I think this may be fixed with PLEASE in all capitals for emphasis.
