What is Schengen?

The Schengen Area is a group of 26 European countries that have abolished passport and immigration controls at their common borders. It functions as a single country for international travel purposes, with a common visa policy.

With a Schengen visa, you can travel to any of the 26 European countries during the validity of your visa.

Note: First time travelers are to travel to the issuing European country first before traveling to others.


List of current 26 Schengen countries, which include 22 EU countries and four non-EU countries:

  • Austria
  • Belgium
  • Czech Republic
  • Denmark
  • Estonia

  • France and Monaco
  • Germany
