Processing Time

Efficient document review and consultation rely on the prompt response from the applicant. Nevertheless, our team excels at compiling and filing applications within just 3 working days. Once biometrics capture and submission at the VFS/embassy/Consulate are completed, the average processing time is approximately 10 working days. Rest assured, we are committed to keeping you informed about your application’s status at every stage of the process.

 

Visa Duration

The Schengen visa duration is determined by the embassy/consulate. First-time travellers are usually given a 30-day visa, while other factors such as profile, travel history and purpose of stay can improve your chances of getting up to 2-year visa or more.
