- Round-trip or one-way itineraries available
- Accepted format for embassy and visa-centre checklists
- Names, route and dates issued exactly as you enter them
- A real reservation, not a mocked-up image
Applicants in Lagos file a dummy ticket for one simple reason: the embassy wants to see an itinerary, not a purchase. A reservation shows your route, dates and a working booking reference — and if the visa does not come through, there is nothing to cancel and nothing to lose.
Why a reservation satisfies the itinerary requirement
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 Lagos
Lagos has no visa post of its own, so files are handled through VFS Global Lagos submit both. Order the reservation 1–3 days before your appointment, print the PDF, and keep a screenshot of the PNR check on your phone as backup.
What the itinerary must show
The checklist asks for a flight reservation or itinerary with your name, route and dates, alongside accommodation and insurance proof. Keep the dates consistent with the rest of the file and the flight line is done.

The price, and what it includes
At ₹699 / $9 the reservation costs less than the taxi ride to the visa centre. Compare that with a refundable fare, which locks a large sum and still makes you chase the refund afterwards.
Mistakes that cost applicants their visa slot
- Forgetting the return leg on a tourist file. Show the exit: a return reservation is the cheapest way to prove you intend to leave on time.
- Booking the reservation weeks ahead. Airline holds expire. Order 1–3 days before the appointment so the PNR is live when someone checks it.
- Skipping the accommodation proof. Several visa posts want a hotel booking next to the flight. Add a dummy hotel booking on the same order.
- Trying to check in with a reservation. A reservation cannot be used to fly — it exists for the embassy and immigration counters.
- Ignoring transit rules on the way. A connection through a third country can need its own transit visa. Check before you finalise dates.
What ₹699 / $9 includes
One order covers one passenger and one itinerary:
- A genuine reservation in the airline system — route from LOS, your dates, passport-accurate names.
- A live booking reference that resolves on the airline's own website.
- Airline-format PDF by email in about ten minutes, WhatsApp copy on request.
- Re-issue support if a hold ever fails to resolve before your appointment.
After the visa: booking the real flight
Once the visa is granted, book the actual ticket on whatever dates and airline now suit you — often cheaper and better timed than anything available before approval, because you are no longer buying under deadline pressure. The reservation was never meant to be flown on; it kept your file complete while the decision was pending, then stepped aside.
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.
Who orders this, and why
The order list is broader than most people expect:
- First-time applicants, who want full documentation without gambling fare money on an undecided file.
- Frequent travellers juggling several applications, where purchased tickets for each would be reckless.
- Travel agents and consultants preparing client files, who need a reliable document at a predictable price.
- Anyone asked for onward proof at a border or check-in counter.
The common thread: all of them need a verifiable itinerary today, and a purchased fare solves nothing that ₹699 / $9 does not solve better.
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 LOS, 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 Lagos submit both knowing the officer will find a live, confirmed-status itinerary is worth more than any promise on an order page.
Proof of onward travel, handled
Immigration and check-in desks ask for exit proof far more often than travellers expect. A reservation with a working booking reference shows the onward or return journey, satisfies the question, and costs ₹699 / $9 — compared with a purchased one-way ticket that is frequently forfeited when plans change.
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.
Your questions, answered
Will the embassy or visa centre accept a dummy ticket for a visa application from Lagos?
The officer decides each file, but the requirement is a reservation or itinerary showing your route and dates. A live-PNR reservation meets it, whether submitted online or at the counter.
What is the validity of the reservation?
Long enough for a visa appointment — typically several days — which is why we recommend ordering close to your submission date.
Is this suitable for a first visa application?
Yes — a large share of our orders are first-time files. A live-PNR reservation is the standard, low-risk way to complete one.
Is baggage included?
No — baggage belongs to a purchased fare. The itinerary shows the route, dates and passengers, which is all a visa file needs.
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.
Will the embassy phone the airline to confirm?
Occasionally they do, which is exactly why the booking reference must resolve — and it does, because the hold sits in the airline's own system.
Can I choose the airline shown on the reservation?
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.
Will budget airlines accept it for onward proof?
Usually. Airlines commonly accept a reservation with a live reference as proof of onward travel, though check-in staff decide on the day. Low-cost carriers sometimes ask for a paid ticket; if your route involves one, check their policy or tell us and we will advise.

Dummy ticket price for applicants in Nigeria
If your phone number is a Nigeria number (+234), a flight reservation costs $9 per passenger, one way or round trip. The price follows the country of your phone number, not where you are flying, so a Lagos 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 |
|---|---|
| Nigeria (+234) | $9 per passenger |
| India | ₹699 per passenger |
| United Arab Emirates | AED 33 per passenger |
| Saudi Arabia | SAR 34 per passenger |
| Qatar | QAR 33 per passenger |
| Oman | OMR 3.5 per passenger |
| Kuwait | KWD 2.75 per passenger |
| United States and Canada | $9 per passenger |
| United Kingdom | £7 per passenger |
| Everywhere else | $9 per passenger |
Paid through Razorpay by UPI, card or netbanking. The reservation is emailed in about 10 minutes and stays valid for up to 2 weeks; the airline decides the exact period, so book close to your appointment.
What you receive
The same itinerary format the airline itself sends, with a six-character booking reference (PNR) that resolves on the airline's "Manage booking" page. Every reservation shows:
- Passenger names exactly as on the passport
- Airline, flight numbers, dates and times
- Live PNR / booking reference you can check yourself
- Departure and arrival airports
- Class of travel and baggage allowance

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.
