Thousands of Schengen visa applications are refused each year simply because the application form is completed incorrectly, not enough financial evidence is provided or incorrect documents are provided with the application. Don’t waste money applying for a Schengen visa before you know all the requirements.

I wish the embassies will provide this information on their websites. Money well spent considering we would have lost hundreds of pounds if our Schengen visa was refused.

This guide has everything you will ever need to apply for a Schengen visa. Our application was not very straight forward but after downloading this guide we found the answers and applied successfully for three Schengen visas. Certainly worth the money.

After not knowing anything about Schengen countries or visas, I now know what to do if I need a visa for Europe. I travelled to 5 countries and the application was fairly pain free thanks to the Schengen Visa Guide.

Where to apply for a Schengen Visa?
A Schengen visa is applied for at the local Embassy, Consulate or Visa Application Centre of the Schengen country which you will be spending the most nights on your trip to the Schengen area. If you are only visiting one country on your trip then you apply for your visa at the local Embassy, Consulate or Visa Application centre of this Schengen country. If you are spending an equal amount of time between several Schengen countries then you should apply at the local Embassy, Consulate or Visa Application Centre of the country that will be your first port of entry.
How long does it take to get a Schengen visa?
It really depends on the Consulate. Some take a week, others take 15 working days. It’s important to take this into account when planning your holiday. It is also important to remember that you may only get an appointment to apply for the visa in 3 weeks time so this should be taken into consideration before booking your holiday.
I am travelling by Eurostar or car to Europe, any special requirements?
Yes, Eurostar ticket must be original and nonflexible and non-refundable. If travelling by motor vehicle you will need to provide driver’s license, log book, MOT certificate, insurance for the vehicle with return ferry tickets with your full name and car details.
Do I need Travel insurance?
You will need travel insurance when you apply for a Schengen visa. The travel insurance should include medical evacuation / repatriation coverage of at least EURO 30,000. The insurance company must have a representative office in Europe and the insurance must be valid for duration of stay in the Schengen states.
