The Embassy of Italy in Islamabad has warned Pakistani applicants against submitting forged or fraudulent documents for study visa application.
In a statement, the embassy said it has noticed an “unprecedented surge” in dubious and forged documents attached to the study visa applications.” The embassy particularly cautioned applicants against submitting fake documents particularly related to their means of subsistence, or proof of financial resources required for their stay in Italy.
It said applicants found submitting forged documents would face immediate rejection of their visa applications, while such violations could also negatively affect any future applications.
