Before you apply

Getting the Switzerland itinerary right

A visa officer reads your flight, hotel and application form together. They should tell one story.

01
Make sure every traveller's name appears on the flight reservation exactly as in the passport; the embassy asks for this specifically.
02
For a family, keep all rooms under one booking in the head of family's name so one set of confirmations covers everyone.
03
Submit documents in the checklist order and unstapled; only documents named on the checklist are accepted.
04
Bank statements must be originals in A4 with the bank's stamp and signature.
05
Summer and holiday periods lengthen processing, so apply earlier than the two-week minimum.

Questions

Switzerland hotel booking FAQ

How much is a hotel booking for a Switzerland Schengen visa?

₹590 per hotel, taxes included, however many guests are staying. A trip with two cities and two hotels is ₹1,180.

Will every traveller's name be on the hotel booking?

Yes. The confirmation lists each guest as spelled in the passport, with check-in and check-out dates and the property's address and contact details, which is what a visa officer looks for.

Do I pay the hotel for the room?

No. You pay only our ₹590 service fee. You do not prepay the room, so you are not out of pocket for accommodation while the Switzerland visa decision is pending.

Is a hotel booking required for a Switzerland tourist visa?

Yes. You must provide proof of accommodation in Switzerland and any other Schengen states you visit. The checklist accepts hotel reservation confirmations, package tours or advance payments.

When should I book and apply for a Switzerland visa?

Applications must reach VFS at least 15 calendar days before travel, and processing usually takes 15 calendar days once the embassy has the complete file. Apply earlier ahead of holiday periods and arrange the reservation close to your appointment date.
