What the consulate expects

VFS Global, TLScontact and BLS International (the outsourcing partners used by most Schengen consulates) list "proof of accommodation for the entire stay" as a required document. A booking confirmation covering your exact check-in and check-out dates satisfies this line item.

Your confirmation lists the hotel, address, your name, and every night from arrival to departure — exactly what the checklist asks for.

Answers

Frequently asked questions

Is a hotel booking accepted for a Schengen visa?
Yes. A hotel booking confirmation that covers the entire duration of your stay is accepted as proof of accommodation by Schengen consulates and their partners VFS Global, TLScontact and BLS.
Do I have to pay for the whole hotel stay to apply?
No. Consulates require a booking confirmation, not a paid-in-full receipt. Our document is a genuine, QR-verifiable reservation confirmation for your exact dates — you are not charged for the room itself.
Can the embassy verify my hotel booking?
Yes. Every confirmation carries a QR code and a reference the consulate can scan or type into our verification portal to confirm it is authentic and matches your dates.
What if my visa dates change?
Use Manage Booking to reissue the confirmation for your new dates before you download it. Refunds are available any time before you download the PDF.
