We all love to travel and since we do not live in one of the member states of the European Union, we have to go through the visa procedure every time.. The visa process starts some time before the trip and puts us all in trouble.. Moreover, as frequent travelers we already spend enough money at our destination, while we often pay large sums of money for visas with a short duration.. Sometimes, because our visa has expired, we are unable to book the flight, which is sold at a very economical price, and we are deprived of adding ‘that perfect city’ to our list.. Sometimes going through that procedure to renew a visa is tiring from the beginning and we give up on going abroad without getting ‘contaminated’.. However it is possible to get a long-term Schengen visa! As someone who succeeded in this with a 1-year visa with a stay of 90 days from Italy in the past months, I would not have been able to share this process in Journavel.

Where do I find the visa documents of the country I’m going to?
Visa processes of countries included in the Schengen area are carried out by intermediary companies to a large extent. Idata, VFS Global and Orange, which you often hear and sometimes experience, are the most well-known of these brokerage houses.. In order to find the visa documents of the country you are going to, you can access the required documents section from the website of the consulate of that country or the list of intermediary institutions it directs. The other method is to search on Google with phrases like ‘…(country name)… visa documents’.. After finding the relevant institution, you can find the visa documents you need to prepare by following the directions on their website. I didn’t particularly want to include this list; because the situation may vary from country to country.. Countries can request additional documents according to the information they want to see, so it is best to contact the intermediary institution of the country you are going to directly.

Which country will I get a long-term visa from?
Bad news; no firm conclusions. The future Schengen visa period varies according to the documents you provide, your reliability, living conditions and financial gain.. Besides; Your previous entry and exit from the country you applied for, visas obtained from the same place, your previous travels and visas obtained from other countries are also other factors that determine your duration.
For example; I made my first visa application from Germany and was rejected because my documents were not convincing.. But among my friends who did not get a Schengen visa from Germany before, there were also those who got a visa for 3 years from here.. Therefore, the initiative of the visa officer you will come across with the documents you will provide is of great importance.. Despite all this, I can say that Italy and France lead the countries that issue long-term visas.
Problematic regions include Hungary, Czech and Austria. Unless extreme situations develop, these three countries only issue visas as much as the scope of travel, and extend the passport sending period considerably.. Get your visa from somewhere else if possible and organize your next trip plans to the cities of these countries, as they send you 1 day before the trip and put you in a lot of heartache.

What has How long did I get a visa from countries?
My visa issue started with some heartbreak after my tourist visa refusal in Germany. Of course I didn’t give up; I got my second visa for Erasmus exchange program and my third visa for a summer school from Italy in the category of ‘student visa’. Afterwards, I used up my third 6-month visa, again from Italy, this time ‘touristy’, and applied for the fourth one as a tourist visa to Sweden.. It is true that in Scandinavia there was a bit of caution at first entries; This visa came back from Sweden with a 30-day stay for 3 months.. Since our first trip after Sweden was to Austria, we tried our luck here this time.. After my application, I got dark on the blogs I read with an Austrian visa.. I was in deep thought as I saw that he usually gave me enough visas to cover almost only the trip.. The result wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t good either.. The scope of our 3-month visa with a stay of 20 days was so wide that we could not finish it.. After the last visa from Austria, I promised not to cut my time by applying from another country again.. We were very experienced in our Sixth visa, this time we took the road to Idata for Italy visa without risking the job.. Result in 2 working days; 1 year Schengen visa with 90 days stay!
How do I get a 1-year or long-term Schengen visa?
#Your documents must be complete and your reservations must be firm.
This item is the biggest factor in getting a visa. When the documents you will submit to the visa officer or the intermediary institution are missing, you are already sent back to complete.. As a result, your file cannot be sent to processing unless the documents are complete. So, the first thing you need to pay attention to is to provide all the requested documents; you should even carry with you additional documents that you can show when requested, such as extra photocopy of identity card, proof of birth certificate, residence certificate, car license and individual retirement account statement.
Other than documents, one of the things that countries expect from you in your visa application is your hotel and flight reservations.. Some refuse your request without a ticketed flight, while others simply require a reservation. It is in your best interest to provide confirmed and paid flight information to secure your business in the Schengen area. You can make your accommodation reservations from sites such as Booking.com, Hotels.com, Rocketmiles, Airbnb, provided that you show your full address and contact information; However, do not forget that you will be questioned from the contact information you provide after you submit your documents.. If you print out the reservation for document delivery and then cancel it, it will be understood that you did so during the inquiry and this will add a few notches to your minus account.. In such cases, it happens that consulates do not issue visas.
#Your income, all balance in the account, credit card balance, title deeds and licenses, if any; add your assets to your application file.
One of the most important factors in Schengen visa periods is income. Of course, as income increases, comes the risk of going and making a living there.. In this case, you are expected to reassure European countries that you will immigrate there during your trip.. Powerful examples of situations that bind you to your country and prevent you from acting quickly, such as working for a company, owning a house, number of immovables, not having done military service yet.
Apart from proving that you are established in your own country with all kinds of documents, you can submit all kinds of documents that show you strong in terms of your income, and I will spend a lot of money on them. , you have to say ‘. Your financial situation is an important tool for the country’s confidence in you; but you don’t need to be living in extreme prosperity. It is possible for a person who earns 3,000 TL on average and does not have a house or a car to obtain a visa for 1 year; The issue here is the salary that is regularly deposited in your account every month and the fact that you have been working for an institution that has paid it for a while.
Another factor that strengthens your income situation is in your savings account. a balance of at least 7-8 thousand liras preserved for bad days. This will show that you have money for your trip and can provide the expected Euros per day for the number of days you travel.. It is useful to use it as a supporting factor.
#Make sure to submit your new Schengen application from countries where you have previously obtained a Schengen visa get it.
He ate the yoghurt by blowing his mouth burning from milk, based on my personal experience in this regard. Do not risk yourself at all, get your visas from countries where you have already obtained visas.. I think going to the same country again and again makes you more lovable on the consulate side.. Like us, when you have entered Italy several times, especially if you have several Schengen visas obtained from Italy before, your time will increase.. Likewise, France helps a lot in this regard.
#Entry into the Schengen area from which country you obtained your visa from .
When you say try to make your visa applications from the same country, another thing you need to pay attention to is to use your Schengen visa to use your visa in the country where you first got your visa
strong>. Recently, I have friends who have entered from other countries and have had no problems, but in order not to risk future applications and to extend the time, it is always for you to keep your promise and enter and exit from this country first. keeps it higher. I mean; If you do not have to and do not have a spontaneous business obligation, let’s say you got a Schengen visa from Italy, use it in Italy first. In particular, Germany is very strict in this regard.. You can enter France with a Schengen visa from Germany, but you may get a little bored when you enter Germany afterwards.
#Include documents of your next planned travels in addition to the application documents.
A method to extend the visa period; add your upcoming itinerary and reservations to the application. This will show that you have another visit to the Schengen area after your first trip, thus ensuring that you get a long-term visa if all your documents are complete and you are reliable enough.. Of course, do not miss to mention this situation to the authorized officer during your application interview.. This tactic always works.
#Over all your documents, Write a petition stating that you travel frequently and therefore request a long-term Schengen visa..
This is the most important factor in obtaining a 1-year Schengen visa. While making our final application, we wrote a short petition stating that we travel frequently with my wife, Okan, and that we have a trip every month, and add it to our files.. As our passport pages are also very supportive of this petition, our polite request was not turned down by the Italian consulate and we became the owner of our first long-term Schengen.
Of course petition alone is not enough; As I explained in the other parts of the article, having applied for a visa to the same place several times, our visa durations are increasing each time, not using the visas obtained from Italy in other countries, having a regular job, our salary being deposited in our accounts every month, even if the house is not a car, the regular savings account amount, the entrance and exit in our passports are also very effective in obtaining long-term visas.. I hope; My suggestions will be useful for you and I can create some comfort in your travel budget without getting a visa to each destination separately.. I wish you a long visa and plenty of travel!
