How to submit and how to get a Proof of Accommodation without paying for Visa?

 

Most embassies and consulates around the world will ask you to submit proof of accommodation alongside with the other documents, especially if you are applying to visit one of the European countries.

A proof of accommodation document is simply a document that shows you have somewhere to stay during your trip to the Schengen Area. It could be a hotel booking, a letter from family or a friend, or a rental agreement stating you have the short-term rent of a home for the duration of your trip.

A hotel reservation proves that you have your accommodation arranged in the country you are planning to visit. It also proves that you are able to sustain yourself financially during your trip. In addition, it confirms your travel dates and the length of your trip. Embassies and consulates take this information into account when deciding whether to approve your visa application. For example, if you have mentioned your trip will last for 10 days, you need to be able to show that your accommodation also matches the same number of days. This can be done in three ways:

1.       Provide an invitation letter from a friend or relative residing in the country you are visiting

2.       Book a reservation with a hotel or hostel and use the confirmation letter as proof of accommodation

3.       Get a dummy hotel reservation through a verified agent

Any of these three documents will be accepted by the embassy or consulate as proof of accommodation and will ensure maximum chances of approval. However, you might not be visiting a friend or relative and if you book a reservation with a hotel or hostel, this will cost you money, which might not be refunded if your visa gets rejected. Therefore, that leaves a dummy hotel reservation through an agent.

A dummy hotel reservation is simply a hotel booking specifically used for the purpose of getting a visa. The booking is created depending on your travel dates and once you know the outcome of your visa application, the hotel reservation dates can be changed or the booking can be cancelled if your visa gets rejected. The added advantage of getting a dummy hotel reservation is you do not pay for the hotel up front, so you will not lose any money if your visa gets rejected. There is just a basic service charge to the travel agent who does everything for you.

Verified travel agencies like Schengen Visa Itinerary can do this for you at a very nominal charge and can even handle multiple hotel reservations at a time. We also offer Flight Reservation and affordable Travel Insurance to complete your visa requirements.

There is absolutely no need for you to feel stressed when we can take care of everything, leaving you to enjoy planning your trip!

Do I Need to Book Hotel Before Visa and How Do I Get A Hotel Booking Confirmation Letter For Visa Application?

Image
  Nowadays, aside from the basic requirements as the application form, passport and photographs, a  flight itinerary and a hotel booking  are among the crucial requirements of each embassy no matter where they are located or which country they represent. Many, in particular first-time applicants, fail to understand what the embassy precisely wants them to do.    Some often make the mistake of buying actual flight tickets and making actual hotel reservation fully paying for their stay there, though the hotel may not reimburse them, not even partially, in case of cancellation. Others, also thinking that the embassy wants them to buy the plane tickets and pay for their hotel stay, give up on their hope to visit the other country they have been planning to since they are scared they will fail to get the visa, and therefore will lose all their money. Yet, the embassy by no means wants you to risk losing that much money since neither the hotel booking nor the flight itinerary guarantee you t
