Tips:

From1.2015./kloc-0.12, all applicants must collect fingerprints in person at the visa center of the embassy or consulate that submitted the visa application (data and fingerprint collection cannot be separated); Fingerprint data will be stored for 59 months and will be common among Schengen countries; Applicants need to memorize the exact date of the first fingerprint collection (you don't need to submit it in person to apply for a visa again, but you need to provide time; If you forget the time, the embassy generally won't help you check)

2. Fingerprint collection will be a ten-finger fingerprint and a digital photo;

3./kloc-minors under 0/2 years of age do not need to collect fingerprints; People who can't collect fingerprints because of hand disability don't need to collect fingerprints; The issued visa will still be valid, and you need to collect fingerprints to apply again after the visa expires;

4. The applicant can check whether the data has been successfully saved in the visa information system with the information on the visa. For example, visa mark VIS will not need to collect fingerprints again within 59 months; If VIS-0 is marked, it means that the applicant's data has not been saved successfully, and the next application still needs to be collected again;

If you have enough time, you can handle it yourself. If it is the first time, you can go through the travel agency first, which will increase the chances of passing, and you can learn a lot from the communication with the travel agency, and the travel agency is more professional in terms of efficiency.
