Was the problem with visas for entering the Schengen area? What was the
problem in particular? They applied for a visa of a different country
than the Czech Republic or applied for a Czech visa and planned to fly
to a different country?
I was in touch with the consul of the Czech embassy in New Delhi. We had
several calls last week to go through the list of applicants and confirm
that they're indeed invited by us because some of them had no history
traveling to the Schengen area. All applications seemed to be ok in the
end, but it stroke me a bit that he told me they'd only received 3-4
applications with our letters of invitation while we sent them out to 12
ppl in India.
I applied for a tourist visa without using the letter. Several
others
might have done the same.
