Frequently Asked Questions

A dummy ticket is a temporary, verifiable flight reservation that looks just like a real airline ticket, complete with a valid PNR (Passenger Name Record) or booking code. It's primarily used as proof of your travel plans for visa applications or immigration purposes, showing your intent to enter and exit a country without requiring you to buy an expensive, non-refundable flight upfront. It cannot be used for actual travel.
Yes, absolutely! Using a dummy ticket for your visa application is 100% legal, provided it's a valid and verifiable reservation obtained from a trustworthy source like dummyfares.com. Many embassies and consulates actually recommend using flight reservations to avoid financial loss if your visa is denied.
Not at all, if you use a legitimate and verifiable dummy ticket from a trusted provider. Visa officers check for valid reservations, not necessarily paid tickets. In fact, our tickets are widely accepted for Schengen, UK, US, and Canadian visa applications.
We prioritize speed and efficiency! Many of our dummy tickets are available for instant download at checkout, eliminating the need to wait for email confirmation. Most services deliver within minutes, making us perfect for last-minute visa appointments.
Every verifiable dummy ticket from dummyfares.com comes with a verifiable PNR (Passenger Name Record). You can typically verify this directly on the airline's official website using their "Manage My Booking" or "My Trips" tool by entering your PNR and surname. This ensures your document is authentic.
Our Standard Reservation is the GDS formatted itinerary widely accepted by embassies for routine applications. Our Verifiable Reservation is an upgrade that includes a live, airline-confirmed PNR, recommended for high-security checks, border control, or strict consulates where maximum verifiability is needed. Most customers start with the Standard Reservation.
Dummy tickets are generally non-refundable, as they are temporary reservations for proof of travel, not for actual flights. The small fee paid for a dummy ticket is a minimal, risk-free investment compared to purchasing a full, non-refundable flight ticket before you have visa approval. Please refer to our Refund Policy for full details.
Embassies and consulates are well aware that visa approval is not guaranteed, and they do not want applicants to suffer financial loss. They specifically request a flight itinerary or reservation—not a full ticket—to confirm your travel intent and return date, allowing you to avoid purchasing expensive, non-refundable tickets until your visa is safely in hand. This is the official reason why a verifiable reservation is the required document.
Yes. A refundable ticket requires you to pay the full, high fare upfront, tying up hundreds or thousands of dollars for weeks. Our Verifiable Reservation satisfies the exact same embassy requirement for a minimal fee, eliminating the financial risk entirely. It is the smarter, safer way to comply with the embassy's 'no full ticket before visa' guidance.
The truth is, 99% of visa officers do not check the PNR online. They are highly familiar with airline documentation and primarily check the document's authenticity and format and that the dates align with your itinerary upon submission. Online verification is a rare spot-check, usually reserved for suspicious or high-risk applications. Your focus should be on submitting an authentic, professional-looking document, which both our services provide.
Using a free, edited ticket is a massive risk. Embassies check for authentic formats and hidden PNR structures at submission. An edited ticket lacks the true PNR, Flight Data, Sector Data and proper GDS generated format, leads to authenticity issues. Our small fee ensures you submit a genuine, verifiable document generated through official channels, protecting your application.
Our policy is a service guarantee. We offer a full refund if we fail to provide the service mentioned (e.g., if the PNR is provably invalid immediately upon receipt or if we fail to deliver the document). Fees are non-refundable if your visa is denied, as the core service (providing authentic documentation) was successfully fulfilled.
They refer to the same document. Proof of Onward Travel is the official term embassies use for the required document showing your exit from the destination country. Dummy Ticket is the common traveler slang for a temporary, verifiable reservation used to satisfy this requirement without paying the full fare.
Our reservations are temporary. While you cannot 'cancel' them, you may be able to request one-time date changes for an administrative fee, provided the original reservation hasn't fully expired. New destinations or multiple changes typically require a new booking.
No. A Verifiable PNR confirms that a reservation exists in the airline's system for a specific, short window. A Confirmed, Paid Ticket means the seat has been fully purchased and ticketed. Our verifiable PNR is sufficient for visa proof; it is not valid for travel.
For most tourist visas (like Schengen), a round-trip reservation is required to prove intent to return home. If you are applying for a one-way visa (e.g., student or work visa), a one-way reservation is acceptable, but you still need to demonstrate proof of sufficient funds to cover your stay.
Yes. Many consulates require proof of accommodation (hotel booking) for the entire trip. We offer dummy hotel bookings that meet this requirement, allowing you to secure all necessary documentation without pre-paying for expensive stays.
Yes. Our service handles complex itineraries. For multi-stop trips, you need one document that clearly shows your entry into the first country and your final exit out of the region (e.g., the Schengen area). We create a consolidated itinerary that satisfies this strict visa requirement. Contact us for complex itineraries.
Your dummy ticket is delivered in a PDF format, which is the universal standard for official visa and travel documentation.
Most airline reservations (like our documents) do not display the price. The embassy is concerned only with the dates and the fact that a reservation exists, not the cost. If an embassy specifically requests a ticket with a price, it is usually a signal that they are looking for a fully-paid ticket, which is a rare, stricter requirement.
Yes. For countries offering Visa on Arrival, you often need to show proof of onward/return travel before you even board the plane to their country. Our Verifiable Reservation ensures you have the necessary documentation to satisfy both the airline check-in counter and the immigration officer upon arrival.
We recommend purchasing the reservation 1 to 2 days before your visa appointment. This maximizes the PNR's live validity for the moment of submission. If you select the Verifiable Reservation, you have a longer buffer, but ordering too far in advance increases the risk of expiration before the submission date.
