SHORT TERM VISA
Schengen visa enables a foreigner to travel to the Schengen area. With a Schengen visa you can travel freely between these countries as long as the Schengen visa is valid.
You have to apply for your Schengen visa at the Embassy of your main destination. If the main destination cannot be determined, responsibility for issuance of the visa lies with the Schengen state of first entry.
The process and required documents for these countries are the same as when applying for a visa to visit Sweden.
Processing normally takes 10-14 days, but may in some cases take up to a month (or longer).
A visa gives the opportunity to enter the Schengen area, but does not imply a legal right to do so.
There are different requirements for different types of visas. The purpose of a proposed visit cannot be altered once the visa has been issued.
For application, please select type of visa:
