DGCA To Ban False Travel Info For Visa Applications

KUWAIT CITY, June 2: The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) intends to issue a circular to tourism and travel agencies prohibiting the provision of false and unverified information about accommodations and hotel reservations to complete the necessary information for obtaining entry visas (especially Schengen), say reliable sources. Sources warned that providing incorrect information regarding travel tickets and accommodations prompts embassies to take action, such as refusing to issue visas due to inaccurate information. Sources said such action could affect the credibility of Kuwaitis and the commercial sector in the country when dealing with foreign embassies.

Sources stressed the need to comply with the laws, regulations, and circulars issued by the DGCA on this matter, indicating all the necessary legal measures will be taken to regulate the air transport market in the country.
