It is imperative that you carefully determine to which country you must apply. If we submit your application and it is determined that you must apply to a different Schengen country, AVS will charge additional fees.
NOTE: The United Kingdom and Ireland do not participate in the Schengen Program.
Schengen Visas
The country you have selected participates in the Schengen Visa Waiver program. The Schengen Area is comprised of 25 European nations that have signed an agreement to allow free travel within their states with one visa. U.S. Passport holders do not require any visa to travel in the Schengen states (see list below) unless a stay of over 90 days is planned in any one country.
Passport holders from virtually all Asian countries (major exceptions: Japan, South Korea) and African countries require a Schengen Visa to travel to any of the included states.
