Experience Sharing
Tourist visas are typically issued as multiple-entry visas valid for 2 years, with stays of 60-90 days. The duration of your flight itinerary may affect the length of your Schengen visa. In most cases, it is a single-entry visa, but some may receive longer validity with good luck.
Fees: Same price for children and adults. Consulate visa fee + appointment fee + insurance fee vary by consulate (between 70-160 USD).
Processing usually takes 6-10 business days. It is recommended to prepare 1-2 months in advance, as consulates do not offer expedited services.
