Dear Ambassador

This is to draw your kind attention that my visa application with reference number: M5261886 to attend the Sial Exhibition has been rejected for reasons I find it unclear

I am the international business Market Development Head of Beyti (A joint venture company between Pepsico& AlMarai ) the leading dairy and juice manufacturer in Egypt with a turnover of LE4.5billion pounds equivalent to more than Euro 200Million annually
Our export represents 15% of your business and it is my responsibility to lead the company to achieve this plan. Attending exhibitions is major part of achieving my company expansion plans.

I am travelling to Europe, USA, Africa and East Asia on a continuous basis as an integral part of my responsibilities to achieve the company’s annual Export plans. This is very clear on examining my valid passport number A1683274
I was very confused to receive your rejection regarding my Schengen application to travel to France and lead my team who have already been awarded the requested visa. It is very unclear how my subordinates/ team applications get accepted and my application gets refused. There must be a sort of misunderstanding. I hereby urge to reconsider my application enabling me to lead my team and attend the show to full fill my responsibilities after our big investment in Sial show which exceeds 25000 euro till now.

Its is also worthwhile to mention that the company has provided all the necessary funding and obligations in terms of accommodation, travel documents and all the usual documentations and investment practiced every year to secure our participation in the planned shows. The result of which my team applications were accepted. Beyti is participating routinely in all the exhibitions sponsored by The Export Development Authority ie Gulf food in UAE, Anuga in Koln Germany, World food in Moscow, all of which I have attended in a routine manner

Dears I would highly appreciate you grant me a new interview in person with the consulate officials to answer in person to any inquiries and/or submit any needed supporting documents needed to secure my application approval

I will appreciate taking necessary procedures to expedite my visa issuance as I truly can’t afford missing This trip.

I will be ready to submit or receive My Passport from The Consulate To Save time “if it will be Applicable”

Below is my full data:

visa appeal
Embassy of France
Visa Section
To Whom It May Concern:

Good day!

I am Mohamed Ahmed , born on oct 1,1990 in Cairo, Egypt with passport number A17078309.


I am writing this letter as remonstration for the rejection of my visa application I received from the France Embassy dated Oct 16, 2017. My visa application was refused for the reason that my “intention to leave the territory of the Member States before the expiry of the visa could not be ascertained”.
I don’t understand why I you refused my tourist visa when I have shown proofs that I will be coming back to Egypt after my approved vacation leave from work. Hence I am writing to appeal my visa application. Nonetheless , I have submitted all the documents that you would require.
I applied for Schengen visa through TLScontact on 8/10. I have got a rejection paper with ninth point marked which states that I wish to travel before the time required to process my Visa. Nonetheless, that I have applied with two of my friends on the same day for a trip starts on 25/10 and they both got their visa accepted. I have represented all the documents needed.
also my flight Ticket date phone:01003799637

Appeal against Visa refusal
To whom it may concern,
First, I lobna labib Mohamed Badr applied on 10/08/2017 to access France from 15/09/2017 to 27/09/2017, but on 25/08/2017 passport returned and visa was rejected. The mentioned reason for rejection is as follows: votre volonte de quitter le territoire des Etats membres avant l'expiration du visa n'a pas pu etre etablie, known that I submitted all requested documents, hotel booking, insurance that covers staying period, and balance statement. Second, I don't really intend to stay in France, I just asked to have tourism visa for limited short period. Third, when I should apply again for visa. Fourth, since I haven't got the visa so will visa fees be refunded.
Sincerely,
Passport number: A20294187
Demand reference for visa: CAI.2017.650541
