A requirement in getting a visa is a letter from the employer or school that you are allowed to leave, and you’ll come back. This is called a “No Objection Letter.” A No Objection Letter serves as proof that you have obligations in work or school indeed but they approve your absence for travel.
You can ask this from your employer or school. However, you can also follow our No Objection Letter Template for your Visa Application.
No Objection Letters are sometimes required in Schengen Visa Applications. It’s also a great additional supporting document for most visa applications besides the Certificate of Employment or Enrollment. Feel free to use the template below for your applications.

- File a Leave Form and get it approved
- Ask for a Certificate of Employment and a No Objection Letter
