All banks give PTA and it must be the bank you have account with. It takes upto 5 days and you must have a return ticket, one way is not acceptable
Re: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by Alexie89: 8:19pm On Oct 05, 2021
First Bank and it took just 2 days...

Yes, it will carry the duration of your stay according to what you input on your application, it doesn't matter when you get it done what matters is that the insurance covered your arrival and departure date

Please....what about the flight ticket reservation....i called the Air france airline and the woman told me to chilled till on the 26th before i book the flight ticket since my appointment day is on the 27th but she said its going to take 24 hours and is that advisable, because i thought they are going to verify the flight ticket

I knew getting a travel itinerary for visa application is the most difficult and confusing part of the visa process. Consulates insist on providing confirmed flight and hotel bookings. But they do not recommend purchasing an actual ticket. They just want an itinerary. Did you see how confusing is that?

Often times the embassies ask for one of these –

Flight tickets
Flight itinerary
Flight confirmation
Confirmed flight tickets
Confirmed flight itinerary
Round trip flight tickets
Proof of onward travel

They all mean the same thing. “Flight tickets”. Consulates understand the fact that a visa application does not result in a guaranteed approval. Therefore, they only recommend you to “hold” a flight reservation, not actually “purchase” the flight tickets.

God forbid... If your visa application is denied or delayed, you will lose the money that you have spent on the flight tickets. Airlines and insurance providers do not consider visa denial as a reason for refund claims. So, do not purchase your flight tickets until your visa application is approved.
Good luck �

You do not need to call the airline for your flight itinerary, go to their website book a flight reservation, on the payment page choose to pay at the office, they will give you 2days to pay before cancellation and you get your itinerary via email print it and add to your visa application. Embassy do not verify the flight itinerary they just want to see your itinerary and they know is not advisable to book flight when you have not gotten your visa.
We have discussed this before here, you guys should read comments instead of asking same questions that have been treated here.

You will see it where they ask for payment either by Card, Bank or office.
Meanwhile try another airline, you can use KLM airline, that's what I use for my visa application

Which of the Schengen country are you applying for exactly? You said that you have an appointment on the 27th of this month in Spanish thread and you are also saying that you have an appointment on the 27th of this month on this France Thread.
I hope you know what you are doing as this Thread is for France and not Spain.

Good morning house, if someone has a two years UK visa and will like to travel to the UK in December 2021 and also want to travel to France around Feb next year. For the UK visit, the person is intending spending two months in the UK and also travel to France. E.g will be traveling to the UK end of December and will stay in the UK from Jan and Feb ending, so he is intending to travel to France around Feb by train from the UK.

My question is if the person can apply for a France visa around December and state the traveling time in Feb next year, can they agree to give the person the visa for that Feb next year OR they will like the person to travel within the time the person applied?

My second question is how will the person book flight ticket since the first travel is to the UK first and from the UK take a train to France. how can one book a flight that can convince France visa officer? kindly advise, please.

Many thanks for your responses.

You can apply in Dec against Feb travel. Regarding flight just make a reservation for that time (Feb) no need to make your application complex.
