Verifiable Flight Reservation
How can an embassy verify my flight booking?
When visa officers evaluate an application, they frequently check the authenticity of supporting travel arrangements. Embassies verify a flight booking by entering the 6-character Passenger Name Record (PNR) and the passenger last name into the airline's reservation system.
If an officer enters the code on the airline website under Manage My Booking and the name does not appear on that flight, the application can be rejected for fake documents. A verifiable flight reservation from TravelProof holds a live status in the airline system for up to 14 days depending on the travel date, giving the embassy time to confirm the plans.
How Visa Verification Works
When an embassy processing center handles a file, verification agents look up the PNR across systems such as Amadeus, Sabre, or Galileo. The lookup matches the passport name with the airline record. An order processed through TravelProof NG shows an active, confirmed, or seat-held status, which shows that space was allocated for the journey.
What Visa Officers Look For
- Matching data: First and last names must match the passport spelling exactly.
- Active status: The reservation should read confirmed or held, not cancelled or untraceable.
- Correct routing: The dates and flight numbers on the airline portal must match the printed copy in the visa file.
The Risk of Non-Verifiable Drafts
Standard reservations or graphic-only drafts do not connect to live airline inventory. They can look legitimate on paper and still fail a manual or automated check. A live verifiable booking from TravelProof NG gives the visa officer a record they can confirm before they review financial documents.
