Schengen Visa Policy

The Schengen Visa Policy allows travelers to visit multiple European countries within the Schengen Area—comprising 26 countries—using a single visa. This visa grants short-term access (up to 90 days within a 180-day period) for tourism, business, or family visits. Applicants must demonstrate sufficient funds, accommodation, and ties to their home country to ensure they will leave after their trip. Once approved, the visa permits free movement across all Schengen member states without additional border checks, streamlining travel while maintaining security and oversight.
