Hotel Reservation for Your Visa Application
Get a confirmed hotel reservation (dummy hotel booking) for your visa application without paying for the actual hotel stay upfront.
What is a hotel reservation for a visa application?
A hotel reservation, also called a dummy hotel booking, is a confirmed booking with a real hotel showing where you intend to stay and your planned stay dates for your visa application, without requiring you to pay for the actual hotel stay upfront.
It can be used as proof of accommodation when hotel details are required for your visa application.
A hotel reservation for a visa application is not a paid hotel stay. You cannot use it to check into the hotel. Once you're ready to travel, you'll need to book and pay for your actual accommodation.
Can I choose the hotel myself?
No. For this service, your hotel is selected automatically based on your destination, stay dates and availability.
We'll make sure the reservation matches the destination and stay dates you provide in your booking.
Tell us the city or location you need to show on your visa application.
Give us the check-in and check-out dates that match your intended trip.
We'll select an available hotel that fits your destination and dates.
How fast do you need your reservation?
Choose standard delivery or fast track if your visa appointment or application deadline is close.
Standard
Prices shown are per person, per hotel reservation. If you need reservations for more than one hotel, each hotel is charged separately.
Don't pay for a full hotel stay before your visa decision.
Some visa applications require proof of where you intend to stay before a decision has been made on your visa.
A hotel reservation or dummy hotel booking lets you provide those accommodation details without paying for the full hotel stay upfront.
Once your visa is approved and you're ready to travel, Revie can help you book and pay for the accommodation you actually intend to use.

You'll need a few details to get started.
Enter your name exactly as it appears on your passport.
Tell us where you're travelling to and your intended check-in and check-out dates.

We recommend getting your hotel reservation before completing the accommodation details in your visa application, so you can use the confirmed hotel details and keep your application consistent.
Make sure your name, destination and stay dates are correct before submitting your request. Your hotel will be selected automatically based on your destination, stay dates and availability. Changes after submission may attract an additional fee. This service is non-refundable.
