If you live in Kenya and are applying for a short-stay Italy Schengen visa, prepare flight evidence that matches your real route and the current document list for your purpose of travel.

Where to apply

The Embassy of Italy receives applications through VFS Global centres in Nairobi and Mombasa.

What to show for your flights

For a tourism application, prepare a round-trip booking with a PNR from a dependable airline or travel agent. It must show your passport name, departure city and destinations. The Embassy also asks for a detailed itinerary.

Choosing an itinerary

The current Italian tourist checklist explicitly asks for a round-trip booking with a PNR. A PNR identifies a reservation and does not, by itself, prove that an airline ticket has been issued.

Before you submit

Check that the PNR is genuine and the names and route are accurate before your appointment.
