Remember you can apply again if you don’t get the Schengen visa on the first try.
The rejection notice you get from the embassy might state that you can not apply again for a certain amount of time, but if it doesn’t you can re-apply at any time.
What benefits do you have if you receive a Schengen Visa?
One advantage among many that the Schengen Agreement gives is that you can apply for a visa in a Schengen state and usually, that country will issue the Schengen visa that is valid for the entire Schengen Area.
How many times do tourists travel around the Schengen borders in one year?
57 million of crossings in the Schengen borders, out of 1.3 billion each year are made from transport of products.
The other crossings are made by tourists. This shows how beneficial the Schengen Agreement is to companies.
What happens when you travel to a EU country which is not a part of the Schengen Zone?
When you go to a European Union country that is not part of the Schengen agreement, you will have to apply for a different kind of visa, entry requirements and passport control systems.
In which embassy should you apply if you want to visit multiple Schengen states?
If you have no clear main destination or the purpose of your trip is the same in all Schengen countries you will visit (ex. Tourism), then you will have to apply at the application center of the member state where you will first travel to. You need to bring your passport with you.
What to do in case you have to visit another state first from what you’ve applied to in the beginning?
If you have been given a Schengen visa for going to a (for example) conference to another state but meanwhile the conference gets cancelled, you have to inform the embassy about the change and apply for a new visa if needed.
Not all European Union countries are part of the Schengen zone and not all Schengen states are part of the European Union.
This is an important fact to know because you will have different visa application procedures for each.
How can you make traveling around Europe possible?
Traveling around Europe is possible if you apply for the Schengen Visa and obtain it.
For example Norway might have the northern lights but you won’t find the ones of the sun at its beaches.
Take a flight to Greece and take in that sunshine. You can easily do this if you have a Schengen visa.
