You need to come to the consular department and submit your documents
Instructions
Step 1
To avoid misunderstandings, we first list the countries that are part of the Schengen area. Schengen includes: Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, Italy, Austria, Greece, Luxembourg, Portugal, France, Sweden, Germany, Finland, Denmark, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia, Hungary, Malta, Norway, Iceland and Switzerland. Not included in the Schengen United Kingdom, Ireland, Bulgaria, Romania and Cyprus. A visa issued by one of the countries belonging to the Schengen agreement gives the right to visit or short-term stay throughout the Schengen territory, for a maximum period of 90 days.
Step 2
According to the rules of the Schengen Agreement, you must obtain a visa at the embassy or consulate of the country that will be the main country of your stay. Submit the documents to the visa department of the consulate. Here is a list of the package of documents that you need to submit:
1. Questionnaire. The visa application form is filled out in Latin letters and signed by the applicant personally. The application can be downloaded from the consulate's website and filled out on a computer.
2. Color photograph of passport format.
3. A valid passport, as well as old passports with previously issued visas.
4. Medical insurance policy for those traveling abroad.
5. An invitation, which specifies the purpose and conditions of the trip.
6. Receipt of consular fee payment. If you are applying for a visa for a minor child, a copy of the birth certificate must be attached to the package of documents. On March 29, 2010, new legislation of the European Union came into force, according to which a child cannot be entered into a parent's visa. Each child is required to fill out an application form and obtain a separate visa.
Step 3
After your documents are accepted, you will be informed about the date of the visa readiness. Usually, a visa is issued within a week. If you live a distance of more than 500 km. from the location of the consulate, you can get a visa within three working days.
