Schengen visa

Schengen state

One application covers every Schengen state, so there is no separate Italy or France visa to apply for. It is lodged with the country you are spending the most time in — or, when no single country dominates the trip, the one you enter first. We work out which consulate that is before you start, then handle the appointment and the paperwork from there.

  • 15 calendar days, up to 45 in some casesTypical processing
  • Short stay — up to 90 days in any 180Typical validity

Indicative only — actual processing time and validity are set by the embassy and depend on your nationality, residency and travel history.

How the process works

  1. Free eligibility check

    We confirm which visa applies to your nationality and residency.

  2. Document preparation

    Your file is reviewed and corrected before anything is submitted.

  3. Appointment & submission

    We book the appointment and guide you through biometrics.

  4. Tracking & collection

    We track the application and hand back your passport.

Documents you'll usually need

  • Passport valid for at least 6 months with blank pages
  • UAE residence visa copy (valid at least 3 months)
  • Emirates ID copy (front and back)
  • Recent passport-size photographs to embassy specification
  • Bank statements for the last 3-6 months
  • Employment contract or NOC letter from your employer

Requirements vary. Schengen may ask for additional documents depending on your nationality and purpose of travel. Send us your details and we'll confirm the exact list before you start.
