that get visas refused (and how to avoid them)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visa refusal is almost never a whim. It is based on precise criteria of the <a href=\"https:\/\/eur-lex.europa.eu\/IT\/legal-content\/summary\/visa-code.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><strong>Schengen Visa Code.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Here are the most common mistakes:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-errore_1\">\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-top:0px;font-size:1.1rem\">1. Migration risk (the most frequent reason)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Embassy must be convinced that your guest will return to their country when the visa expires. If the invited person does not have a stable job, owns no property, has no strong family ties in their homeland or has little money in their account, the Embassy will assume they want to stay in Italy illegally.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-errore_2\">\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-top:0px;font-size:1.1rem\">2. Dates that do not match<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the most common technical mistake. The dates must be identical on three documents: the plane ticket (or reservation), the health insurance, and the invitation letter \/ declaration of hospitality. <strong>If even a single date does not match, the visa is denied.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-errore_3\">\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-top:0px;font-size:1.1rem\">3. Guarantee with too low an amount<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Never arrange a guarantee for the exact minimum amount or, worse, for an amount lower than the ministerial tables. <strong>It is always better to cover a figure equal to or higher than 3,905 euros.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-errore_4\">\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-top:0px;font-size:1.1rem\">4. False or altered documents<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Submitting a fake hotel reservation or altered bank statements is a crime. Embassies carry out cross-checks. The consequences are immediate refusal and often a ban on applying for visas in the future.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-errore_5\">\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-top:0px;font-size:1.1rem\">5. Unclear purpose of the trip<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you apply for a tourist visa but, during the interview, the applicant implies that they are coming to &#8220;look for work&#8221; or &#8220;receive medical treatment&#8221;, the visa is denied because the declared purpose does not match the real one.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-errore_6\">\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-top:0px;font-size:1.1rem\">6. Relying on intermediaries who &#8220;guarantee the visa&#8221;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No one can guarantee that a visa will be issued 100%. <strong>Anyone who asks for money in exchange for this promise is a fraudster<\/strong>. The procedure must be transparent and managed directly by the applicant and by the person who invites.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-284_2822be-10 .kt-block-spacer{height:60px;}.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-284_2822be-10 .kt-divider{border-top-width:1px;height:1px;border-top-color:#eee;width:80%;border-top-style:solid;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-spacer aligncenter kt-block-spacer-284_2822be-10\"><div class=\"kt-block-spacer kt-block-spacer-halign-center\"><hr class=\"kt-divider\"\/><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"checklist\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-top:45px\">Complete checklist: what to prepare before you start<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are the one issuing the invitation, here is everything you need to prepare and send to the person you want to host:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-checklist_box\">\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:25px\">Required Documents<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul style=\"font-size:1.05rem\" class=\"wp-block-list is-style-default\">\n<li>\u2610 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vistoperitalia.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/lettera-invito-modulo-da-compilare.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><strong>Declaration of hospitality<\/strong><\/a> completed and signed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 A copy of your identity document (identity card or passport)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 If you are a resident foreigner: a copy of your residence permit<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Original bank guarantee<\/strong> (you receive it by email with a digital signature)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vistoperitalia.it\/en\/health-insurance-for-foreigners\/tourist-visa-health-insurance-italy-schengen\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Schengen health insurance<\/strong><\/a> (minimum coverage \u20ac30,000)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 Flight reservation (or plane ticket)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 Check that all the dates are consistent across the documents<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-suggerimento_lettera\">\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Tip:<\/strong> Also prepare a short letter (on plain paper) in which you explain what relationship you have with the person you are inviting and why they are coming to Italy.
