#Gibson_Associates_Solicitors_Dublin A visa #invitation letter is a written letter from the person you are visiting who lives in the #Schengen country you want to go to. The person you are #visiting is #inviting you to stay with them and by default they #guarantee that you will not stay in the #country illegally.
For example, if you are visiting a friend in Germany, they will send you an invitation letter to stay with them for specific dates. They will describe the relationship they have with you and state that they will support you financially if you are unable to for the time you are in the country.
You must attach the #invitation letter to the rest of the documents in your application, which you will give to the Embassy. The invitation letter is a strong supporter of your application because the #Embassy will know that you are not just going to the country without a purpose. The letter will tell them why you are going and who you are seeing.
So in case you do not return to your home country within the #specified time frame, the authorities will know you are staying #illegally, but they will also have the contact information of the person you were staying with. That is how they can find you and take the necessary measures if you overstay your #Schengen #Visa.
