Dummy Air Ticket for Applicants in India

Most visa files prepared in India for Europe, the UK, North America, the Gulf and East Asia ask for a flight reservation that shows you leaving and coming back.

What you get

  • A reservation held with the airline from your Indian departure airport
  • The airline's own PNR, which the visa centre or consulate can look up
  • A PDF emailed usually within 10 to 60 minutes
  • The expiry date printed on it

From any Indian city

Search from Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Kochi, Ahmedabad, Pune, Goa or any other airport with international flights.

The price

₹400 per passenger per direction, plus 18% GST — ₹472 for one passenger one way. A return trip, or two or more travellers, takes 25% off the flight price. Pay by UPI, Indian card, net banking or bank transfer.

Names and passports

Enter every traveller exactly as printed in the passport. The visa centre compares the reservation with the passport letter by letter.

A reservation, not a ticket

Nobody flies on it and it expires. That is why it costs a few hundred rupees — and why some consulates that want a paid ticket will not accept it. Check the checklist of your visa centre first.
