Faster process for Schengen visa applications: EU delegate

Faster process for Schengen visa applications: EU delegate

The Jakarta Post, Jakarta | Wed, 01/25/2012 12:53 PM
The Delegation of the European Union to Indonesia announced on Wednesday that its embassies from the Schengen visa area would offer much faster service to Indonesians applying for Schengen visas to travel across most European countries.
“In the vast majority of cases, successful applicants will now receive their visas within just a few working days after submitting their passports and supporting documents,” the delegation said in a statement sent to The Jakarta Post.
However, the statement did not detail how many working days it would take to acquire a Schengen visa.
Schengen visas allow travel to 22 out of 27 EU countries, as well as some non-EU countries, including Norway and Switzerland.
“People-to-people links are a vital part in the relationship between Europe and Indonesia. We are delighted to see more Indonesians visiting our countries in recent years,” the statement said.
The service may vary at peak times, and applicants should ask for further information when they apply for a visa. (dmr) http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2012/01/25/faster-process-schengen-visa-applications-eu-delegate.html
