Many of us are aware that the short term visit visa (Tourist/Business) which is issued by any of the Schengen countries can be used to travel to other Schengen countries as well. The following countries come under the Schengen Region: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland.
There is also a Schengen visa compliance that needs to kept in mind before you choose to apply for visa.
- First apply to the particular Schengen country where you intend to visit.
- 2nd point – if you happen to travel to multiple Schengen countries on a same visit, then choose the country where you are spending most number of days.
- 3rd point – if you are travelling to multiple countries and duration for each country is the same, then apply to the country where you are landing first.
The greatest mistake that most of the applicants make is to apply for the country that has less processing time than the actual country that you wish to travel. This is the biggest mistake that you can make and it’s a Non-Compliance to the Schengen visa policies. Please never do that. Make the right decision and apply at the right consulate for a safe and compliant travel.
Good luck.
