The German Embassy in Harare accepts evidence of plans to leave Germany, such as a flight ticket or flight reservation. Tripenger recommends a genuine PNR reservation as one way to meet that wording; the checklist does not make a PNR or paid ticket mandatory. The Embassy also handles short-stay applications where Malta is the main destination.

Recommended Flight Itinerary Type

Based on the guidance linked above, we recommend considering a flight reservation with a PNR to show your planned travel. Tripenger’s PNR package includes an airline booking reference, subject to airline availability. The guidance does not explicitly require a PNR, so please check the latest requirements with the relevant visa authority before ordering.

Choose Your Package and Order Your Flight Itinerary

A visit to Germany might mean seeing relatives, exploring Berlin or attending a business event. Zimbabwean ordinary passport holders normally need a visa before travelling. A Schengen visa (type C) is for short visits of up to 90 days in any 180-day period; a national visa (type D) is generally needed for longer study, work or residence. For ordinary tourist and family visits, the German Embassy in Harare accepts flight reservations as evidence of your plans to leave.

You do not have to confuse a reservation with a fully paid flight. Germany’s Harare tourism and visitor checklists give a ticket or a flight reservation as examples of departure evidence. Tripenger recommends an itinerary with a genuine reservation and PNR when you use the reservation option. Prepare the same travel dates across your flights, accommodation and visit explanation.

Choose your flight itinerary when your journey and document requirement are clear. After visa approval, compare flights to Germany on Tripenger.
