The Schengen Area is a zone comprising 27 European countries that have abolished internal border controls, allowing people to travel freely between them without passport checks at internal borders.
A Schengen Visa typically allows you to stay for up to 90 days within any 180-day period for purposes like tourism, business, or visiting family and friends.
You should apply at the embassy or consulate of the Schengen country that is your main destination (where you intend to spend the most time), or if visiting multiple countries equally, the first point of entry.
Typically required documents include a valid passport, completed application form, recent passport-sized photos, travel medical insurance, flight itinerary, proof of accommodation, and proof of sufficient financial means.
