A guide to using hotel bookings correctly in travel and visa files.

Key points:
- Hotel dates should match flights, insurance and application forms.
- For visa files, the accommodation proof should look credible and complete.
- Customers should avoid bookings that contradict the declared itinerary.

Practical checklist for customers:
- Keep passport, UAE residence visa, Emirates ID and previous travel history ready when relevant.
- Use the official website or official appointment channel before making payments.
- Keep screenshots, application numbers and payment receipts in one folder.
- Recheck dates, spelling of names, passport number and itinerary before submission.

Lexor note:
Lexor can help customers organize documents, check missing items and prepare a clean file before submission. Final approval and timing remain subject to the relevant authority or provider.
