Addressing Fraudulent Hotel Bookings

The federal government lists hotel bookings as a recommended supporting document in visitor visa applications. As a result, many visitor visa applicants are fraudulently booking hotel stays and cancelling at the last minute, costing hotels millions in revenue losses.

HAC continues to be in discussions with senior officials at both Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada and the Canadian Border Services Agency on this issue. We are also working with provincial partners to establish the scale of this issue and its damaging impact on hotel revenues across the country.

To help HAC demonstrate the scale of this problem to government officials, please fill out this form and be an important part of our advocacy:
