Hi bro,

To qualify for the frequent flyer status, you must have had either A UK, USA, Canada or Schengen visa before.

To your point, not all Sticker visas are accepted, you must have only the above to qualify for frequent Traveller.

Regards,

All sticker visa is accepted but stamp visa is not accepted like Dubai and all African countries with stamp visa
The challenge he has is overstayed visa which might affect him.

Anything is possible.. only the consular general can decide.
That was how I almost did not go for my appointment because of some comments here that suggested that it is almost impossible to get a tourist visa as a first timer without prior travel to UK, US , Australia or Canada or having their visa in your passport. I didn’t have any of those.
If no be say I been don pay for the appointment and didn’t want my money to waste, I for dump the idea.
My passport came back in 2days, I thought I had been denied before I got my passport. My application was successful.
Just give it your best shot. Include as many documents as possible, and hope for the best.

i used booking dot com it worked perfectly for me.. Check hotel that have free cancellation till the date of arrival select hotel room.. Fill your details and card details you won't be debited

Thanks for the response, I used the same booking.com to book for an hotel but this was cancelled because of card verification issue

The sad thing is that I already put the hotel name on my application form ...

Hello Gurus,

I need help in my application. I have had three scheghen visa rejection (let me start with the bad part) and I applied for buisness visas cause I was going got conferences and off site meetings


Now, there is another off site meeting I am to attend for first week of October.
I was asked by my company to look for an agent and start the process early. The first agent I contacted balled on me

I don't know what to do and I am soliciting for help here.

It's really going to be sad that I can't travel to see my work mates for once

I am trying to gather my documents so I can submit an application by July

So far I need a list of ideas of possible documents I need to submit to add to these I have already
My Bank statement
My Payslips
Pension
Invitation letter from my company
Confirmation letter/ Employee agreement
Appointment letter
Employees Directory
Certificates relating to my occupation
Cover letter with travel itinerary explaining purpose of my trip
Letter explaining the previous rejection
Travel Medical Insurance policy
Proof of Hotel reservation
My Flight Reservation


Also something to note my company makes use of Deel Nigeria to hire me. So Deel is like a third party that handles my salary payment, contract etc. So my contract, pay slips, confirmation letter has Deel in it

A quick question regarding to this: Do I have to bring a letter that explains my company relationship with Deel.

I used wakanow. I got to the payment point and stopped cos they were asking me to input card details. But then I received a call from them and I explained to them, then they sent the reservation to my email. Thanks for your help.

It simply means, your application has been sent to FRENCH embassy. I believe you must have received a second mail with clearer info saying your application has been received at the French embassy.
