Every year a large share of visa files from Kathmandu 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
Verification is quick on their side: the booking reference resolves in the airline system, with your name and route attached. That is the entire test the document has to pass — and it does, without a single rupee paid to anyone.
Local details for Kathmandu applicants
Applications from Kathmandu go through VFS Global Kathmandu. The flight itinerary is one page of the file: a real booking reference, names as on the passport, and dates that agree with the form you are submitting.
Why travellers keep a reservation in the file
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.
Book in four steps
Start with the route
Kathmandu to your destination, plus the dates your file needs.
Add passenger details
Names exactly as printed on the passport — the upload auto-fills them.

Per passenger, via Razorpay — UPI, cards or international cards.
Check the PNR yourself
The PDF arrives in ~10 minutes; enter the code on the airline site to verify.
What it costs
It costs ₹699 / $9 per passenger, any route, any destination. There is no route-based pricing to decode: the reservation is the same flat rate whether the flight is short-haul or intercontinental.
Common errors with flight reservations
- Dates that disagree with the rest of the file. The itinerary, hotel, insurance and application form should tell one story. Fix the dates before ordering.
- Leaving the PNR unverified before the appointment. Two minutes on the airline's Manage Booking page tells you what the officer will see.
- Name spelled differently from the passport. The reservation is issued exactly as entered. A mismatch with the passport invites questions.
- Ignoring transit rules on the way. Some routings demand a transit visa even without leaving the airport. Verify the layover country.
Onward travel and immigration counters
The reservation is not only for embassies. Check-in staff on visa-free routes, immigration officers at land and air borders, and airline ground teams all ask the same question: when are you leaving? A one-way or round-trip reservation with a live reference answers it in seconds. Travellers flying into destinations that require onward proof use the same document — it shows a real intention to move on, without buying a second ticket that may never be used.
What a reservation cannot do
Honest limits, because you will read them elsewhere anyway: a reservation is not a ticket, so it cannot be used to board; it includes no baggage entitlement; it cannot be edited after issuance — a changed date means a fresh order; and it says nothing about whether the visa itself will be granted. What it does — a verifiable itinerary at ₹699 / $9, with nothing at stake — is precisely the job the checklist assigns to it.
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.
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 KTM, 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 Kathmandu knowing the officer will find a live, confirmed-status itinerary is worth more than any promise on an order page.
When to order, when to verify, when to stop worrying
Three dates matter. The appointment date, which you cannot choose freely — book the order one to three days ahead of it. The verification moment, the evening before, when you check the PNR yourself. And the decision date, whenever the visa lands — after which you book the real ticket with no document deadlines at all.
Everything else is waiting, and a reservation costs nothing while you wait. That is the quiet advantage over a purchased fare, which starts burning money the day you buy it.
One realistic timeline
Monday: appointment confirmed. Tuesday: reservation ordered from KTM, hotel booking added to the same order, both PDFs in hand within minutes. Wednesday evening: PNR verified on the airline site. Thursday: submitted at VFS Global Kathmandu. The entire flight-and-hotel paperwork cost ₹699 / $9 per document — and if the answer is no, every rupee of fare money is still in the bank.
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.
What ₹699 / $9 includes
One order covers one passenger and one itinerary:
- A genuine reservation in the airline system — route from KTM, 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.
Common questions, straight answers
Is a dummy ticket accepted for a visa application from Kathmandu?
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.
Which airport will the itinerary show for Kathmandu?
We default to KTM. If another origin suits your file better, say so in the notes; it takes no extra time.
Am I doing anything wrong by using a reservation?
No. Using a reservation is legal. Airlines create unpaid holds as a normal part of booking, and embassies ask for reservations precisely because nothing is paid. What is illegal is a forged document — a real reservation is not one.
Can I get accommodation proof in the same order?
Yes, on the same order at the same ₹699 / $9 rate. Many applicants submit the flight and hotel together.
Do you provide invoices for reimbursement?
Yes — request a GST invoice in the order notes and it is emailed with your itinerary.
Will the PNR actually show up on the airline website?
Yes. The booking reference resolves on the airline site. Try it the day before your appointment so you know exactly what the officer will see.
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.
Will I get a seat assignment?
No — seats belong to a purchased fare. The document shows the route, dates and passengers, which is everything a visa file or onward-travel check needs.

Dummy ticket price for applicants in Nepal
If your phone number is a Nepal number (+977), 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 Kathmandu 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 |
|---|---|
| Nepal (+977) | $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.

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.

| PNR resolves on the airline website | Yes: a live reservation | No PNR | Yes |
| Cost per passenger | ₹699 / $9 | Free | The full fare at risk |
