Visa for European countries (except Britain)

When Vancouver applies for a European visa, it can choose the SchengenVisa, which is also our general Chinese Schengen visa. It is a short-term tourist visa for 26 European countries (the total time is no more than 90 days). Twenty-six European countries * * * agreed to cancel passport and immigration checks at the border. In the Schengen area, holders of tourist Schengen visas from any country can freely enter and leave various countries and enjoy equal travel rights.

Schengen member States

Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and Liechtenstein.

Select the country to apply for a visa

After the Schengen visa is issued, the holder can indeed travel throughout the Schengen area, because the Schengen visa procedures in each Schengen country are similar. However, there are some preset rules about where/which embassy/consulate the applicant must apply for a Schengen visa to go to the target Schengen country.

If the applicant wants to go to Schengen countries, he must apply at the corresponding embassy/consulate in a specific country. If you plan to travel to two or more Schengen countries, it is recommended to apply for a visa at the embassy or consulate of the country that will stay for the longest time, and it is recommended to choose this country as the entry and exit country.

If you visit several Schengen countries at random, you must apply for a visa at the embassy or consulate of the first country you arrive in.

Appointment application

The Schengen visa processing time is about 15 days, so it is necessary to make an appointment in advance to apply, which is in line with the travel plan. At the same time, the earliest appointment time is 12 weeks before departure, so you can't apply for a visa too much in advance.

Most Schengen visa issuing countries do not accept online visa applications. Therefore, it is recommended to contact the consulate by phone or email in advance and make an appointment in advance.
