Notice
Regarding Visa For Schengen States
Austria, Belgium, The Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain and Sweden. As of 01 June 2001, travelers
to Europe on business or tourism purposes may receive a visa for
a short stay of one to ninety days, valid for all of the above-mentioned
countries. A Schengen visa issued by an embassy or consulate of
the above countries allows the holder to travel freely in all
of these countries.
- If you intend to visit only one
Schengen country, you must apply through the embassy or
consulate of that particular country.
- If you intend to visit several
Schengen countries, you must apply for a visa through
the embassy or consulate of the country which is your main
destination.
- If you intend to visit several countries
but do not have a main destination, you should apply
for a visa at the embassy or consulate of the country which
is your first port of entry.
- If you do not need a visa for the Schengen
country which is your main destination or first point of entry,
please note that you may require a visa for other Schengen
countries you wish to visit. You should then apply through
the embassy or consulate of the first country which
does require a visa.
REGISTER YOUR TRIP:
The U.S. Department of State encourages all American travelers to register with their local Embassy or Consulate when arriving in a foreign country. Registration helps the Embassy to provide important services for American citizens residing or traveling abroad. Some of these services include:
-
Locating individuals in cases of family or personal emergencies,
-
Relaying important travel and safety information about the region,
-
Arranging evacuation transportation in cases of natural disaster or civil unrest,
-
Issuing replacement passports when originals are lost, and
-
A number of other administrative services relating to personal documentation.
Without the information provided through registration, the Embassy is severely hindered in its ability to provide these services. Many of these services involve emergency situations and time constraints, therefore failure to register will almost certainly lead to delays at moments when you can least afford them.
