The Schengen Area is the area comprising
26 European countries that have abolished passport or any other type of border
control in-between their common borders, also referred to as internal borders.
It functions as a single country for international travel purposes, with a common
Visa Policy. The Area is named after the Schengen Agreement. Countries in the Schengen Area have eliminated
internal border controls with the other Schengen members, and strengthened
external border controls with non-Schengen states. The Schengen area encourages
the free movement of goods, information, money and people.
The Schengen Visa has
made traveling between its 25 member countries (22 European Union states and 3
non-EU members) much easier and less bureaucratic. Traveling on a Schengen Visa means that the visa
holder can travel to any (or all) member countries using one single visa, thus
avoiding the hassle and expense of obtaining individual visas for each country.
The purpose of the
visit must be leisure, tourism, or business. Upon the issuance of the visa, the
visa holder is allowed to enter all member countries and travel freely
throughout the Schengen area. It is strongly recommended to plan your journey
within the timeframe of the Schengen Visa as extensions can be very difficult
to obtain, thus forcing you to leave to stay in compliance with the Schengen
rules and regulations.
A Schengen visa allows
the holder to travel freely within the Schengen countries for a maximum stay of
up to 90 days in a 6 month period.
