Can anyone comment on the current requirements when applying for a multiple entry visa (90 days or 1 year) and the need to rent a hotel via a travel agency in order to secure a letter of invitation - is this still the case, even for citizens from the US/EU? If anyone has rented an apartment on their own, can you recommend which exact travel agency or service you've used in order to get the letter of invitation?
Anyone know?
In fact, for short-term (type C) visa, you don't need an invitation letter if you're EU, USA, Canada, plus a handful of other countries (but you have to include contact info for whoever's inviting you on the visa application).
Is this a relatively new change?
So for a 30 day tourist visa, as a US citizen, it's possible to apply and receive a visa without the letter of invitation? Can the person renting you an apartment simply "invite" you and you fill out their info on the application form itself?
