My tourist visa to Algeria was refused but there is no refusal stamp
I applied for a tourist visa to Algeria and it was refused but there was no stamp on the passport showing that it was refused.
I asked for the reason of the refusal and they said that it was due to irregularities on the dossier.
And the receptionist at the embassy said that I cannot apply for another visa to Algeria again.
I am really confused. Because if I cannot apply for visa does that mean I was banned or blacklisted? If Yes, how can I clear my name to at least reapply?
Best Answer
It would be impossible to know whether you are banned or were simply refused a visa; the absence of a stamp in your passport is not necessarily an indicator. In this age of electronic information, many countries rely on data for immigration information. When a visa is refused, usually there is paperwork that accompanies the decision, not an oral communication from an individual at reception (and unlikely to be the one to convey the official stance).
What is left for you to do it either again apply for a visa, correcting any omissions or shortcomings; or contact the Consul General at the embassy in your location. Alternatively, you might contact the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, located 1 Rue Yahia Ibn Batran, El Mouradia, Alger, telephone +213 21 504 545/343, www.mae.dz

Is visa rejection stamped on passport?
As long as there is no visa rejection stamp on your passport none will know that another country has denied your visa. Except for Schengen countries as they use the same system and they will be able to pull you information.Do they put rejection stamp?
The importance of a rejected visa can vary from country to country, and also on the reason for it being tuned down. When you get your visa rejected, most countries place a stamp on your passport stating the same. It is therefore easily accessible to any consular officer who will issue your future permits.How do I know if my visa is rejected?

The embassy doesn't track your refusal, CLASS does. That's a database accessible to every American consular officer in the world at the click of a mouse, so it's not just the embassy where the visa refusal takes place.#ukvisa HOW TO PREVENT YOUR VISA FROM BEING REFUSED/ MY UK VISA REFUSAL EXPERIENCE
