THE QUICK ANSWER
For flights, the Denmark tourist checklist prints: “Flight reservations of return or round ticket. If applicant is traveling to several Schengen states proof of intra-Schengen Flight reservation, Train Itinerary or Car rental. People joining cruise liner in the onward journey, should provide the ticket & payment receipt. The Embassy recommends that you do not buy a plane ticket before your visa has been approved.” This line asks for a flight reservation. It does not ask for a paid ticket. For accommodation it prints: “Proof of accommodation: Hotel bookings or accommodation guarantees covering the whole duration of the intended stay.” This line asks for proof of where you will stay. A confirmed hotel booking in the guests’ names answers it.

We match the flight, the hotels and your itinerary
An officer reads the flight reservation, the hotel bookings, the insurance and the form side by side. The arrival date, the first check-in, the last check-out and the return flight have to tell one story, with no night missing. That is what the desk does when you order hotel bookings with a flight reservation: each one is matched to your itinerary.
Dummy ticket and hotel bookings, matched to your itinerary
We do not send one loose document. The desk matches the flight reservation and every hotel booking to your itinerary: the same dates, the same cities, and no night left uncovered. These are the real documents of one order for a Switzerland visa file, issued on 5 November 2026: one flight reservation and four hotel bookings that cover all 9 nights between the two flights. Personal details are blacked out; everything else is as issued.

Denmark checklist questions
Is a flight ticket required for a Denmark visa from India?
The Denmark tourist checklist prints: “Flight reservations of return or round ticket. If applicant is traveling to several Schengen states proof of intra-Schengen Flight reservation, Train Itinerary or Car rental. People joining cruise liner in the onward journey, should provide the ticket & payment receipt. The Embassy recommends that you do not buy a plane ticket before your visa has been approved.” This line asks for a flight reservation. It does not ask for a paid ticket. If you visit more than one Schengen country, it also asks for proof of travel between them: a flight reservation, a train itinerary or a car rental. The checklist itself tells applicants not to buy the ticket before the visa decision. Cruise passengers are asked for the cruise ticket and payment receipt as well.
Is a hotel booking required for a Denmark visa?
The checklist prints: “Proof of accommodation: Hotel bookings or accommodation guarantees covering the whole duration of the intended stay.” This line asks for proof of where you will stay. A confirmed hotel booking in the guests’ names answers it. Every night of the trip has to be covered, in each country you stay in.
What does the Denmark checklist say about travel insurance?
It prints: “Overseas travel medical insurance valid for all Schengen-countries. The insurance has to cover the applicant for at least 30,000 Euros or equivalent, for all risks e.g. accident, illness, medical emergency evacuation, Covid -19 etc. The policy has to clearly specify the period of validity and has to cover the entire duration of the trip including the date of arrival & departure.”
