10 Common Visa Mistakes Indians Make (and How to Avoid Them)

• Incomplete forms – Even a missing field can cause rejection.
• Wrong photo size – Each country has strict photo rules.
• Fake or inconsistent documents – Leads to instant refusal.
• Weak travel itinerary – Show a clear, logical plan.
• No proof of funds – Embassies want to see financial stability.
• Overstaying history – Previous travel records matter.
• No travel insurance (where mandatory) – Required in Schengen, etc.
• Unclear purpose of visit – Always justify why you’re traveling.
• Last-minute applications – Some visas need 2–3 months.
• Ignoring embassy-specific rules – Each country has its own checklist.

👉 Tip: Always double-check embassy requirements and seek expert help.
