As many as you want to !

It is very easy to get a Schengen Visa from India, if you have all documentation in place. My family and I had applied for a Short Stay Tourist Schengen Visa via Switzerland and received it within 3 days of submission in March 2017 in Mumbai. I was travelling to France, Switzerland and UK with my wife and in-laws (All of us are Indian citizens living in India).My wife and I have travelled abroad several times however this was the first foreign trip for my in-laws. My father in-law and I also had sufficient funds (above Rs. 2 lakhs) maintained regularly in our 6 month bank account statements and sufficient income (above Rs. 5 lakhs per annum).The application procedure via VFS (Switzerland Visa Information - New Delhi (North and East India) - Home Page) is very straightforward. If you have any queries, you can call their helpline or mail them. I found them very cooperative and prompt at replying queries. Here is my experience so that others too can obtain their Visa easily.Create an account on Swiss Visa. You can fill multiple application forms for different people using the same account. I created an account and filled out the forms for all 4 of us.The application form is quite short. The Visa Authorities merely wish to confirm if you are a genuine applicant who will not stay back in Europe illegally. It is highly advisable to have a confirmed accommodation booking under your own name, along with the return travel tickets.After filling the forms, you have make the payment of Rs. 5850 per application and take an appointment. We picked the earliest possible appointment, which was on the next day. Print all the necessary forms including your Application Form, Application Checklist, Appointment Letter, Receipt, Passport Xerox, Travel Tickets, Hotel Reservations, Income Tax Returns, Bank Account Statements, Marriage Certificate (in case your spouse’s name is not mentioned in your passport), Travel Insurance, Cover Letter (explaining why are you applying for Visa) and anything else pertaining to your trip. It is better to give them extra information rather than have your application rejected over lack of sufficient information.signNow the Visa Application Centre before time. They have a token system and there is a certain waiting time there. We took nearly 3 hours to complete the entire process as our token number was being skipped due to some computer fault.As we were travelling together in a group, all our documents were bunched together for submission. The biometric data will be taken and you will be asked to leave immediately after all this.We received a mail and SMS after 2 days that our processed application was dispatched from Delhi. We picked up a sealed package with our name from the Application Centre on Day 3. When we opened the package, we had obtained the Visa on our Passports.Overall, it was a pretty simple procedure and it is easy to complete it by yourself with some guidance from the VFS Helplines. If you have all travel documents and finances in place, then you can confidently apply for the Visa without worry of rejection.FYI - Embassy norms dictate that one must obtain UK Visa prior to Schengen Visa irrespective of which country you enter first, if UK happens to be on your travel itinerary.

Look for an SaaS developer, someone with JavaScript, PHP, and MySQL skills to create Cloud-hosted browser-based forms and reports who also has a modicum of financial analysis background.Dumping obsolete Excel client server architecture as soon as you can will be the best thing you can do to bring your operation into the 21st Century.

Middle names and middle initials are optional in most forms.Middle names or middle initials are not mandatory unless they are government-issued application forms where the government would want to know and store your full name for future reference.Instead of middle names, provide middle initials. Provide middle initials only if necessary. If the blank space only accepts one letter, then you might want to provide the initial of your second given name.

First thing first “Finalizing the Visa Consulate”:If you are planning to tour more than two countries in the Schengen area then apply for visa to the embassy/consulate of the country you will be residing in for most of the travelling days, often referred as the main destination. If two countries have the same number of days then choose the one where you are planning to land or exit.In case you do not have a fixed itinerary (not recommended, though), and you plan to visit several countries in the Schengen area randomly, then apply to the embassy/consulate of the country which you are entering first.Since now you know which embassy you need to apply, next is how to apply and what are the documents required.Long trail of documentation:The most painful part is this, where you need to prepare the documentation. I will keep the checklist simple and provide rationale on why they ask for the particular document which will help you understand the significance of it and you can produce a substitute, if possible and required1) Valid passport (issued within the last 10 years and with at least 3 months validity after the scheduled return; passports with observations regarding the front data page are no accepted) with at least two empty pages Nothing much to say, of course you need a valid passport. Since the maximum stay with a Schengen visa can be of 90 days, so 3 months validity is required on the passport. Two blank pages, because one will have Visa sticker and the other page will have Indian immigration stamps and the stamps from the Schengen country where you are landing and exiting.2) 2 passport pictures according to biometric specifications, not older than 6 months Go to the studio and get a photo of the dimension 35 mm in length and 45 mm in height. Your face (the start of the hairline in the forehead till end of your chin) should be between 32 mm to 36 mm. Get the photo in a light background, white is preferred. Detailed information can be obtained here Cheap Tip: Do not go to any fancy studio and spend a bomb on just the photo. The consulate needs a clean and clear photo with the above mentioned specifications (which are very general) and not for featuring you as a playboy model, so save the buck.3) Leave letter of your company (if employed)This letter serves as a proof of return to your own country, so make sure the letter clearly states your designation, since when you are working with the company, leave dates (mandatorily covering your entire stay), date on which you will resume your duties.No-objection certificate of school or university (if student) This is pretty much same as the above.4) Proof of financial status If employed:Payslips of the past three months / employment contract Provide either of them, not both. Provide three latest Payslips, as it clearly states how much you are earning and if you are capable of surviving a European trip. This document helps the Visa officer gauge your financial status and also validates that the money earned is legal.If self-employed:Certificate of Proprietorship or other proof of ownership (proof of land title, proof of income from agriculture (sales form) etc.) 5) Income Tax Return (ITR) form or Form 16(Certificate of Income Tax deducted at the source of salary)It ensures that all the fund in your bank account is earned legally. Though my experience is that, they hardly care how you have earned the money. If they see there is enough fund available in your account then they are fine.6) Personal bank statement of the past three months with sufficient fundsHere they look into couple of things; first, money in your account is sufficient to cover your entire stay in Schengen area during your travel period. Second, the fund has not been deposited all of a sudden to inflate the available balance. I have written below in detail on how much you should show in your bank account, so keep reading. The bank account statement can be online, but make sure it is a bank statement with details of transaction and not just an account summary. You can show travelers cards (with statement stating available balance), credit card statement, and fixed deposits in your name or joint accounts. If anyone is sponsoring you (like your father or mother), a sponsoring letter addressed to the consulate from him/her and his/her bank statement for last 3 months.7) Proof of accommodation for your entire stay in the Schengen area.This is vital, I have read and heard personal experiences where the Visa has been cancelled due to discrepancy in accommodation arrangements. Make sure you have confirmed hotel bookings with details of the property owner/manager and property details (address). If you are staying at friends/relatives place then copy of their passport (with valid residence permit, in case of non-EU citizen) and an invitation mail will be sufficient as long as you are sponsoring your own stay.8) Flight and transport reservation Again, very vital. Many applications got rejected because of fake bookings. DO NOT make a fake reservation. Search for flights which has minimal cancellation charges and book your flights well ahead of travel date (45-60 days prior) to get a good deal. If you are travelling within Schengen countries then it is advised to show them train/bus bookings for inter-nation travel. One need not show travel details within the country, say if you are travelling within Italy (Rome to Florence) then need not show prior bookings. But if you are travelling from Italy to Switzerland then it is advised to show a confirmed booking.9) Travel Insurance Vital to get visa and also for your own sake. If something unwanted happens and you need to avail medical services then you will be ripped off everything as healthcare is expensive in whole of Europe. The travel insurance must cover Euro 30, 000.00 in case of hospitalization and must cover emergency medical evacuation and repatriation of remains. The list of approved travel insurance companies can be fetched here.10) Proof of civil status Marriage certificate, birth certificate of children, death certificate of spouse, ration card if applicable or Aadhaar Card.11) 1 copy of your passport’s data page Print the first two pages and last two pages of your passport in an A4 size paper.12) Residency proof, if address in the passport falls outside the jurisdiction region of the consulate: Which consulate or which region you can apply? You can apply at the region (North, South, East or West) where you are residing for last 6 months.This is something none of the blogs available in the internet have mentioned clearly. In case you are a domicile of different region and applying at a different region (domicile of Uttar Pradesh, North and working in Bangalore, South for last 3 years), or simply if the address mentioned in your passport does not fall under the jurisdiction region of then consulate then you need to provide either a copy of your rent agreement, or a letter from your company HR clearly mentioning your address or some utility bill (electricity, water or telephone bill).13) Duly filled application form Kept at last, because it is important. You can either fill an online application (recommended) or also can fill an offline application. German consulate online application can be filled here , similarly other Countries’ application form can be found in the respective VFS website. Self-Declaration Form can be found here, required only for German consulate. It is recommended to fill the online application form, it not only saves time at the application center but also legibility is better than the handwritten one.14) Cover Letter A letter addressed to the consulate you are applying. It must contain the followingPurpose of visit (tourism, visiting friends or family)Detailed itinerary If you have a sponsorExplain your personal relationship with your sponsor and the reason why they will be sponsoring your tripIf you cannot submit any of the required documents, write about the reasons why you cannot submit and explain alternative documents that you may have submittedYou can also mention the reasons why you will not overstay the visa period (employment, personal assets, etc.), explain your rootedness to the countryCool Tip: You can attach the itinerary separately which will enhance the readability of your letter.Write to me at universallocalite@gmail.com if you require a specimen cover letter or template of itinerary, I will be more than happy to help you with one.Visit my blog-How to obtain a Schengen Visa-Rules and tips
