Type of Schengen visas and Schengen countries
- The uniform Schengen Visa (USV), allows you a short-term visit for tourism, business, or visiting purposes.
- The Schengen Airport Transit Visa (ATV), is required, while you are visiting different countries passing through the Schengen areas.
- The Limited Territorial Validity Visa (LTV), is granted in exceptional cases when a visa holder is only allowed to enter and stay in specific Schengen countries.
Why should you get a Schengen Visa?
With a Schengen Visa, you have a wide range of travel possibilities and can travel freely without any border checks within 29 countries in Europe. There are 29 border-free countries in the Schengen area, including Romania and Bulgaria, which recently became part of the Schengen territory.
Having an approved Schengen Tourist or Business Visas in your passport will indicate that you have a good travel history and increase chances by 90% to apply and get visas for other popular countries such as the United States, Australia, United Kingdom, and Canada more easily which frequently issue long-term visas.
If you obtain a Schengen tourist or business visa for any of these countries, it will allow you to enter all 29 countries without needing to get a visa again. You can travel by land, air, or sea freely to any of these countries with the same visa.
To get this visa, you need to choose one country to apply for first. Some countries like Austria, Czech Republic, Belgium, Netherlands, and Switzerland have approval chances that are very high. We usually suggest applying through one of these countries because they often approve more applications.
