FAQ
What is a Schengen visa?

A Schengen visa is issued for short stays in or for transiting through the Schengen Area. The duration must not exceed 90 days in any 180-days period.

A visa issued by any one of the Schengen states is valid for visiting any Schengen state. Do keep in mind that you will have to apply for the visa from the country that would be your primary destination.

If you plan on visiting many Schengen states for about the same time, you will have to apply for the visa from the country that you would be entering first.

Is proof of funds compulsory for a Schengen Visa?

Yes. You will have to show proof of funds.

Schengen visa is granted provided that –

  • You can convince the visa-issuing authorities that you do intend to leave the Schengen Area before the expiration of the visa.
  • You must have adequate means of subsistence that will cover the duration of your entire period of stay in the Schengen Area. You must also be able to present the relevant supporting documents as well.

Do keep in mind that a Schengen visa does not automatically permit the holder of the visa to enter the Schengen Area.
