We require that you successfully complete the purchase of your plan via our website. At that point, your membership status will be pending.
After you purchase your plan, you will be granted access to the Launchpad to complete the following steps to becoming a Travel Quest Network Travel Pro:
Create your legal entity if you haven't already. You will be required to upload a copy of your Certificate of Incorporation/Organization from your home state.
Obtain your EIN (Employer Identification Number) if you haven't already. You will be required to upload a copy of the EIN Letter of Issuance provided by the IRS.
Sign the Agency Owner Verification Authorization and Performance Guaranty via DocuSign.
Once these have been successfully completed, we will begin a criminal background check.
When your background check is completed and your information has been validated by our team, you will be set up in our WorldViaPRO portal to begin your journey with Travel Quest Network.
Need to create your legal entity?
To work with Travel Quest Network as an independent member agency, you must conduct business as a registered legal entity (e.g. a corporation or limited liability company (LLC)) and be authorized to conduct business where you live. Travel Quest Network is a business-to-business service provider. As a business-to-business service provider, we do not support individuals doing business as sole proprietors.
When you register a business with your state, your state will issue a registration certificate. Typically, you will receive a Certificate of Incorporation (for C-Corps) or Certificate of Organization (for LLCs and partnerships).
If you need to set up your business legal entity, please check out these helpful resources. You can also contact your state's Secretary of State's website. Typically, doing a google search for "Create a legal entity in" followed by your state is a good way to find your state's Secretary of State website and information for forming a new legal entity.
After you've uploaded a copy of your LLC and EIN, and signed the agreement, you have to take a photo of yourself for identification purposes (this helps protect against fraud). You will have 48 hours to send a photo, and then we will run the background check.
