Why e-visas get rejected — and how to avoid it

6 min read · Vizaezy Editorial

Roughly 1 in 25 e-visa applications is rejected — almost always for avoidable reasons. Here is the ranked list of why it happens and how Vizaezy applicants steer clear.

1. Typos in the passport number

A single wrong character invalidates the application. Always auto-extract from a passport scan instead of typing manually.

2. Passport too close to expiring

Most countries require 6 months of validity past the planned exit date. Renew first if you're cutting it close.

3. Blurry or oversized photo

Photos must be under 2 MB, sharp, with a plain background and the face filling 70–80% of the frame.

4. Inconsistent travel dates

If your flight ticket dates and application dates do not match, expect a rejection. Lock dates before you apply.

5. Previous overstay or refusal

Always declare prior refusals truthfully — lying triggers a permanent flag in the visa system.

6. Insufficient funds

European and Schengen-style e-visas often verify bank statements. Show at least €60–100 per day of stay.

FAQ

Can I reapply after rejection?

Yes, immediately in most cases — fix the issue cited in the rejection notice and re-submit. Vizaezy guides you through the appeal/reapply path.

Will a previous rejection affect future visas?

Only if you do not declare it. Honest disclosure usually does not block future approvals.

Is the government fee refundable after rejection?

No — government fees are non-refundable. Vizaezy refunds its service fee in full.
