SCHENGEN COUNTRIES AND THEIR CONTACT INFORMATION
The information listed here is intended to provide helpful links to apply for Schengen visas in the UK and where you can apply. Please note that most countries have the option to apply at the Embassy of the destination country. However, visa application processing may be completed at a visa application centre. Applying to the visa centre can mean additional charges, but a quicker or easier service. We would encourage applicants to contact the Embassy or Visa Centre before applying.
