About Schengen Visa

In 1985 Schengen Agreement was signed by five European Countries near the town named “Schengen” in Luxembourg. This treaty was signed to end Internal Border Controls allowing free movement of people within each state. Later on, over the past few years most of the other European Countries joined this treaty making it to total 26 participant member states in this agreement.

This treaty has enabled free movement of people of all these states within European Schengen Area which now includes population of more than 400 million and covers more than 4.3 million square km.

Under the Schengen Agreement, there are joint rules and regulations for controlling the external borders of the Schengen member states and hence it provides the simplified Visa Process and similar rules & requirements to obtain Common Visa for all Schengen Countries. This means one can easily travel to various European countries with just one (Schengen) valid Visa.
