TravelRe: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by larade16(f): 6:31pm On Oct 17, 2021
If you don’t have at least one night payment in the account, it will keep declining, i did yesterday until i had some money in the account before my reservation was fully confirmed.

If you cancel the reservation after you’ve gotten your visa, before the said date you put your money will be refunded.

Ok, thanks, but sometimes, they keep saying, they can't verify my debit card, I used master debit card, i used it to purchase something online frequently. It surprised me when they say that, they can even cancel my reservation because of that, have experience it, what kind of card do they really need?[/quote]

Boss, for clarification please it was written on their website that one need to book an appointment before you can submit your application. Is it that they have changed the rule or what? .Thanks.
As of last year October that I submitted, I didn’t book an appointment, and I haven’t seen anyone here since then talked about booking an appointment before going, maybe someone that submitted recently can help us out...

Mmnmh thanks
Just so I'm clear.

I don't need to book an appointment or choose a date.
I just turn up at the French embassy and submit my forms and accompanying papers
you are not going to France embassy o, you will submit at VFS, just do some google search for the address...when you get there you ask where to submit for France

Please I need help with this or I don't need to book an appointment date before proceeding to the embassy
you don’t need to book an appointment, just make sure you get there early (VFS) for submission.

What kind of question boss
i'm a lady bro.How long are you staying, where do you plan staying( this was when my hotel was confirmed because the immigration guy called the hotel and i guess he was told the reservation was cancelled), so he couldn't ask much till i was directed to another officer. He gave me a form to fill ( it comprises of the form I filled and submitted). So he asked how i was going to pay for the hotel since my reservation was cancelled, and i told him i have cash and can also use my debit card.

[quote author=pufframmy post=77294758]Sir have u been in Italy before what are things to ask at point of entry

Make sure you have your hotel reservation intact, call the hotel to confirm if it's not cancelled. I was delayed for hours because of that
