Latvia Schengen visa checklist for Indian applicants

Every item of the Latvia tourist-visa checklist for applicants in India, as printed, with the two lines people ask about most picked out: the flight reservation and the proof of accommodation.

Updated Reviewed by Narinder Chahal, Director, Pro Lifeset Overseas Private Limited

THE QUICK ANSWER

For flights, the Latvia tourist checklist prints: “Round trip tickets: Confirmed tickets with proof of payment.” This line asks for paid tickets with proof of payment. A dummy ticket (flight reservation) is not a paid ticket and does not meet this wording. For accommodation it prints: “Proof of accommodation: Confirmed & Prepaid Hotels with payment details, directly from hotels. social booking platforms will not be considered valid.” This line asks for a prepaid hotel stay with payment details. A reservation that is not paid does not meet this wording, so speak to the desk before ordering.

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.
