Information for Schengen Visa Applicants
If you intend to transit through or visit any of the Schengen states for up to 90 days for either tourist or business purposes, you have to obtain your Schengen visa. The visa can be obtained from the Consulate of the country of your main destination. If your main destination cannot be ascertained, the country you first enter is responsible for granting your visa.
Along with the proof of health insurance, the main requirements for Visa are listed below. However we advise you to confirm from the consulate if you need any additional documents.
Types of Schengen Visa
Broadly speaking, there are two types of Schengen Visa of general interest.
- Business Visas
- Tourist Visas
Both types can last for a maximum six months and, in that six months period, they will allow a maximum of ninety days to be spent in the Schengen Zone. You will not normally be issued with multiple Schengen Visas with one six month period so, if multiple visits are required then a multiple entry visa will be necessary.
