Flight and Hotel Reservations for Visa Applications: What Embassies Accept

Many embassies ask for a travel itinerary and accommodation details, but most advise not to buy non-refundable tickets before the visa is issued. Refundable or held bookings are usually acceptable. Bookings must be genuine and verifiable; fabricated documents can lead to refusal and bans.
We do not publish company service prices. Ask our team for a case-specific quotation; official fees remain those announced by the authority on the filing date.
What is usually acceptable
Check each embassy's guidance.
- Held or refundable flight reservations

Questions we are asked most
Do I need to buy the ticket first?

Do you publish prices or guarantee the outcome?
