Schengen short-stay visa application through the mission or its authorised application centre in India
The application is made through the embassy, consulate or its authorised application centre.
The authority publishes a downloadable application form that is printed, filled and submitted.
Every Schengen state republishes this same form under its own letterhead. Always prefer the copy published by the mission handling your application; use this only as the reference version.
This is a general guide. The authority publishes the binding document list for your visa category.
Schengen short-stay applications are normally decided within about 15 calendar days of submission and may take longer in individual cases.
