Every year a large share of visa files from Siliguri are completed with a flight reservation rather than a paid ticket. The document looks and behaves like an airline booking because it is one — the only difference is that no fare was paid, so a refusal costs you nothing but a lapsed hold.
What the consular officer looks for in a flight document
The officer's real question is whether your trip is coherent: sensible route, dates that line up with your leave, accommodation and funds. Your reservation is one page of that story — make sure the page agrees with the rest of the file.
Submitting from Siliguri
If you are applying from Siliguri, your paperwork lands at VFS Global Kolkata (nearest). We issue the itinerary from IXB unless you tell us otherwise — the point is that it should read exactly like the journey you are proposing.
Passport renewal (Tatkal) files: where the itinerary fits
Note that reservations are accepted as evidence of urgency. The Passport Seva Kendra under the Tatkal scheme processes the passport renewal (tatkal); the file should include a flight reservation as proof of urgent travel, plus standard documents. Whatever the outcome, the reservation costs ₹699 / $9 and nothing more — there is no fare to lose if the answer is no.

Dummy ticket price from Siliguri
Budget ₹699 / $9 per passenger. A dummy hotel booking, when the checklist wants accommodation too, is the same flat rate and can join the same order.
What goes wrong with itinerary documents
- Booking the reservation weeks ahead. Airline holds expire. Order 1–3 days before the appointment so the PNR is live when someone checks it.
- Trying to check in with a reservation. A reservation cannot be used to fly — it exists for the embassy and immigration counters.
- Calling it a paid ticket. It is a reservation. Say so plainly if asked — the checklist asks for exactly that.
- Choosing the wrong origin airport. The itinerary should start where you actually depart — Siliguri by default, or tell us if it should differ.
- Skipping the accommodation proof. Several visa posts want a hotel booking next to the flight. Add a dummy hotel booking on the same order.
The limits, stated plainly
No baggage, no boarding, no edits after issuance, and no influence on the visa decision. A reservation is a documentation tool, and treating it as anything else — a discount ticket, a placeholder to check in with — ends badly at a counter somewhere. Used for its actual purpose, it is the cheapest, lowest-risk way to complete the flight line of any file.
Included in the flat ₹699 / $9
The price buys the whole document, not a teaser: the reservation itself, the verifiable PNR, the airline-format PDF delivered by email in about ten minutes, a WhatsApp copy when you want one, and support on WhatsApp if anything needs checking before your appointment. A dummy hotel booking joins the same order at the same flat rate.
Then buy the ticket you actually want
Approval in hand, you are free to book the real fare on your own terms: price alerts, preferred airlines, sensible layovers. Applicants who buy before approval lock their dates to whatever was refundable that week; applicants who reserve first buy after, with the visa already in the passport.
What to file alongside the itinerary
A flight reservation satisfies one line of the checklist. The lines next to it usually ask for:
- Hotel booking or invitation. Accommodation covering every night of the trip, or a host's invitation with their address.
- Insurance valid for the whole stay. Check the minimum cover your destination demands before buying.
- Financial proof. Statements that show the trip is affordable without an heroic last-week transfer.
- Ties to home. Employment letters, business documents or family circumstances that show the trip has an end.
The reservation, the hotel and the form should carry identical dates — that consistency is what reviewers actually score.
How the PNR check actually works
Every reservation we issue carries a real booking reference in the airline's own system. Open the airline's Manage Booking page, enter the reference and the passenger surname, and the itinerary appears with your route from IXB, your dates and the passengers listed. That is the same lookup the embassy or visa centre performs, which is why the document survives scrutiny rather than falling apart the moment someone types the code in.
We recommend running the check yourself the day before submission. It takes two minutes, and walking into VFS Global Kolkata (nearest) knowing the officer will find a live, confirmed-status itinerary is worth more than any promise on an order page.
Sixty-second check before you leave
- Passport spelling on the itinerary — checked, letter by letter.
- Same dates across the reservation, form, hotel and insurance.
- PNR verified on the airline website this evening, not last week.
- PDF printed; screenshot of the PNR check on your phone as backup.
Who this service is for
Tourists assembling a first application, students on tight budgets, families applying together, businesses sending people to conferences, consultants preparing other people's files, and backpackers facing an onward-travel question at check-in. Different reasons, same requirement: a real itinerary with a working booking reference, delivered today, for ₹699 / $9.
Where else the document earns its keep
Beyond visa files, the same reservation answers the onward-travel question at check-in and at border counters. It is one document doing two jobs: the itinerary for the embassy or visa centre and the exit proof for whoever stamps your passport. Nothing needs to be purchased in advance to satisfy either.
Timing the order around your appointment
Order the reservation when the appointment date is fixed — ideally one to three days before. Airline holds live for a limited period, and a PNR that expired two weeks before the interview does nothing for your file. Ordering early feels productive but simply spends the hold's life before anyone looks at it.
The same logic applies to renewals and re-applications: each submission gets a fresh reservation, ordered close to the new date.
Your questions, answered
Will the embassy or visa centre accept a dummy ticket for a Passport renewal (Tatkal) application from Siliguri?
The officer decides each file, and what the checklist wants is a flight itinerary with a booking reference — exactly what a dummy ticket is. The embassy or visa centre sees these daily.
Is it possible to edit the reservation later?
Corrections are not possible on a live hold. Re-enter carefully — a new date or name needs a new order.
What if the airline page shows no booking?
Message us on WhatsApp with the order number; airline systems occasionally lag and we re-issue if a hold has dropped.
How far ahead of my a Passport renewal (Tatkal) appointment should I book?
1–3 days before the appointment. Airline holds live for a limited period, so ordering early wastes that window.
Can I use a dummy ticket to board a flight?
No. It is documentation for embassies and immigration counters, not a boarding pass. No airline checks in a passenger on an unpaid hold.
Is a refundable fare a better idea?
Refundable fares tie up serious money and refunds take weeks. A reservation does the identical documentary job for a flat ₹699 / $9.
Is this suitable for a first visa application?
First applications are where the reservation helps most: full documentation with nothing gambled on the outcome.
Do I need a dummy ticket for every traveller in the group?
Each traveller needs their own itinerary line, so orders are priced per passenger — ₹699 / $9 each, all names in passport spelling, delivered together in one email.
Do you issue on specific carriers?
You can note a preferred airline in the order form and we will issue on it where the route allows; otherwise we pick a realistic carrier for your route.

Dummy ticket price for applicants in India
If your phone number is a India number (+91), a flight reservation costs ₹699 per passenger, one way or round trip. The price follows the country of your phone number, not where you are flying, so a Siliguri/Bagdogra applicant pays the same for Dubai, London or Toronto. Multi-city itineraries are priced per pair of flights and a hotel booking costs the same per stay.
| Phone number from | Flight reservation |
|---|---|
| India (+91) | ₹699 per passenger |
| United Arab Emirates | AED 33 per passenger |
| Saudi Arabia | SAR 34 per passenger |

Why a live reservation beats a free "ticket generator"
A generated ticket has no PNR. A visa officer who checks it finds nothing, and a refusal for a false document is the hardest kind to appeal.
