Can a UK citizen residing in UK sponsor a Schengen visa?

Upvote:1

For (as seen on Il Visto Per l'Italia), the required pieces for a Cuban citizen in Cuba are as follows :

[...]

  • proof of accommodation (hotel booking, Declaration of hospitality, declaration whereby accommodation costs shall be borne by the person inviting) ( View )

The linked PDF leads to a PROOF OF SPONSORSHIP AND/OR PRIVATE ACCOMMODATION (DICHIARAZIONE GARANZIA E/O ALLOGGIO) that you seem to be able to fill as a UK national living in the UK, by ticking

dichiaro di farmi carico delle sue spese di sostentamento durante il soggiorno/declare being able to bear his\her living costs during the abovementioned period of stay

And the other relevant boxes after that

Now it seems to require a fideiussione bancaria (bank guarentee), where a bank will lock a sum of money for 90 days in case the foreigner needs it.

You can only contract it as a resident of Italy, so I'd be inclined to contact the Italian embassy in either the UK or Cuba for a definite answer if it's needed for your specific case


For , there isn't any specific form/letter to provide for that, but I think you could just join a cover letter for your sponsorship, especially as their partner, this would seem perfectly reasonable

There is a attestation d'accueil, but this only applies to French residents that are hosting the foreigner


For , the visa page for the Spanish embassy in Cuba :

Documentos que acrediten el motivo del viaje y las condiciones de la estancia, la disponibilidad de medios econΓ³micos suficientes, y que permitan establecer la intenciΓ³n del solicitante de abandonar el espacio Schengen antes de la caducidad del visado.

From Google Translate :

Documents that prove the reason for the trip and the conditions of the stay, the availability of sufficient financial means, and that allow establishing the applicant's intention to leave the Schengen area before the expiration of the visa.

Again, that would let me believe, that you could just join a cover letter for your sponsorship
