Visa Information System (VIS)

The Visa Information System (VIS) is a secure database used by European countries to store and share biometric and application data of travelers applying for visas. It helps streamline the visa process, improve security, and prevent fraud by providing quick access to relevant information for border control and immigration authorities. VIS ensures that visa applicants are properly identified and that their data is accurately maintained across participating countries, facilitating smoother travel while enhancing security measures.
