Where Should I Apply for a Tourist Schengen Visa?

Your Tourist Schengen Visa request must be succumbed to the embassy/consulate/visa centre of your principal terminus in the Schengen Area.

We mean the following when we say “primary destination”:

• When visiting only one Schengen country, submit your visa application to that country’s embassy/consulate/visa centre.
• When visiting more than two Schengen countries, apply at the country’s embassy, consulate, or visa centre:
• In which you will be spending a greater number of days
• Since you want to spend an equal number of days in each, you will enter first.

Pay attention to how your main destination’s authorities have regulated visa submission in your country. Visa application is regulated by jurisdictions in larger countries.

How long does the visa last?

A tourist visa is usually only valid for up to 90 days. It’s a good idea to fill in the “multiple entry” gap on the application form if you’ll be travelling a lot and not only in one Schengen country. This way, you’ll be able to come and go as you choose within the Schengen Zone for the duration of your visa.
