What is a Schengen visa?
A Schengen visa is an entry permit for non-EU nationals to make a short, temporary visit of up to 90 days in any 180-day period to a country in the Schengen area.
Schengen visas come in 3 forms:
single-entry visa - allowing you to enter the Schengen area once;
multiple-entry visa - allowing several visits to the Schengen area for as long as the visa is valid;
airport transit visa - allows you to connect through the international transit area of an airport in the Schengen area during a stopover or a change of flights. It does not allow you to leave the international transit area.
Who needs to apply for a Schengen visa?
Citizens of certain non-EU countries must hold a short-stay visa when travelling to the Schengen area.
Consult the EU list of countries whose citizens are required to hold a visa when crossing its external borders. There are exceptions to the visa requirements for certain types of traveller to certain countries (e.g. diplomats, armed forces, refugees, pupils on school excursions).
Airport transit visas
Some non-EU nationals must also hold an airport transit visa when connecting through the international transit areas of airports located in any of the Schengen States.
For citizens of certain additional countries, an airport transit visa is required when connecting through the international transit areas of airports located in some of the Schengen countries.
There are some categories of people who are exempt from the requirement to hold an airport transit visa (see Article 3(5) of the Visa Code).
