Frequently Asked Questions
In general, a visa issued by any Schengen country allows you to cross Schengen borders. However, your entry into the Schengen area is still contingent upon the approval of border officers.
A Schengen visa is a short-stay visa in the form of a sticker on your travel document. “Short stay” refers to a maximum of 90 days within any 180-day period. The exact validity is listed on the visa sticker under "Duration of visit.”
A single-entry visa allows one entry into the Schengen area, marked as "1" under "Number of entries." A two-entry or multiple-entry visa permits two or more entries, indicated as "02" or "MULT" on the sticker.
Typically, most Schengen visa applications are processed within 30 calendar days, including the 14 calendar day for official processing. However, applications that require more information require up to 60 days.
You can apply for a Schengen visa up to three months before your intended trip. It’s recommended to apply at least 30-40 calendar days in advance, considering national holidays in both the destination Schengen State and the country where you apply. If you hold a multiple-entry visa valid for at least six months, you may apply for a new visa before your current one expires.
Yes, a Schengen visa is typically valid for all Schengen countries. However, you must apply at the consulate of your primary destination. The visa's territorial validity is listed on the sticker under "Valid For."
Apply to the consulate of the Schengen State where you’ll spend the most time. If your stay durations are similar across states, apply at the consulate of your first Schengen destination.
