An employee must request a certificate of paid leave from the company when applying for a visa to travel abroad (Schengen area).
It’s mainly the case for foreign employees (outside the European Union) hired by a company wishing to travel to the United Kingdom.
The application must be printed on letterhead, stamped, and signed by the person in charge of the service or company. It should not be confused with the leave form, an internal company document. Below is an example of a certificate to be personalized according to the context:
