What is a Hotel Reservation or Proof of Accommodation for a Schengen Visa?

 

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 3 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 or To get a hotel Reservation please Visit: https://www.schengenvisaitinerary.com/

Any of these 3 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. So, that leaves a dummy hotel reservation through an agent.

When applying for your Schengen visa, you will find the flight itinerary/reservation as a mandatory document that you need to provide along with other supporting documents.
