I serve as a part-time teaching assistant at a university in my country. I am applying for a Schengen business visa where I will be participating in an academic conference at a research institute in Germany and that institute is going to fund my participation, travel expenses and accomendation during my stay there.

What should the employer letter contain?

Can you show me a template?

    Did you write this yourself, or is it based on a template you found elsewhere? I'm very skeptical about the first sentence of the third paragraph ("We hereby guarantee..."). The employer is in no position to make those guarantees. – Chris H Oct 10 '23 at 05:58

    The first part of the penultimate paragraph is completely inappropriate, not to mention worthless. An employer cannot make such a guarantee. – Traveller Oct 10 '23 at 07:16
  • Sorry for that, but I just want to give example not exactly this one it's just a template. – JazzedJester Oct 11 '23 at 01:01
