The hotel reserved for Germany's national squad at the World Cup in South Africa does not have legal documentation to allow people to stay there.
FIFA's official World Cup Accommodation Office, which is operated by Match Event Services, signed a contract with The Velmore Hotel. But the hotel, near Pretoria, does not have an occupational certificate, the legal document that allows people to occupy the building.
``I won't lie to you, we don't have the documentation,'' Emil Keyser, owner of the Velmore, told The Associated Press on Friday.
FIFA referred The AP to a joint statement with the local organizing committee, saying it was aware of the issue and had no indication that Germany will change hotels.
