A COVER LETTER is a letter that is addressed to the embassy where your planning to apply for a Schengen Visa. It's your best chance to convince the consul to put a visa sticker on your passport. Imagine your cover letter is like your interview, the only difference is that you will not be around to present to them your answer, but your cover letter speaks on your behalf.

Even it's not listed on the embassy requirements list, you need to make a cover letter especially now there is a lot of Embassies that used VFS services to collect documents. Write your cover letter as a way of communicating with the embassy officer that will be reviewing your visa application. Make sure to also write your cover letter according to your travel purposes.

WHAT SHOULD A COVER LETTER CONTAIN?

*Introduce your self by writing complete information about yourself.

*Tell them the purpose of your trip.

*Should contain what visa category you would like to apply, How many days you wanted a visa, and Why you're applying to their embassy.

*Proof of how you will fund your trip, you need to mention if you're going to shoulder all your travel expenses or if you have a Sponsor who is willing to shoulder all your travel expenses. If there is a sponsor, make sure to mention the sponsor's full details, your relationship with the sponsor and how is your sponsor going to fund you.

*Write in your cover letter information on where you are going to stay during the duration of your trip. If your a tourist and will be staying at a hotel, you can write in your cover letter the 1st hotel that you will be staying and the rest let them know that you have it on the attached travel itinerary. If you will be staying at a house of a friend, family member, or partner, write the complete address and name of the person that will provide you accommodation and make sure that you have an invitation letter from them.

*If there are any required documents that you're unable to submit, you can explain to your cover letter why you don't have that.

*Write an ASSURANCE in your cover letter that you will come back to your home country after your visa expires and that you will not overstay in Schengen countries. You can tell them any rootedness you have in your home county.

*Don't forget to write in your cover letter a LIST of all the supporting documents that you attached in your application.

*If you employed write information about your job, where your work, and how much your salary is. If you have your own business, write more information about it, the business name, location, and how is it doing. This will give the embassy office a picture of how you're doing when it comes to finances. This is also a way to tell them that you are capable enough to support your travel expenses.
