Hi, is anyone having problems booking an appointment? The calendar is completely greyed out for me. Does that mean that there are no available dates?

Hello everyone good evening please I want to get an information about Spain visa if anyone get Spain visa recently in Lagos I had they are not giving Nig from Lagos this time pls I will be Glad to get a response

Tnx

I was given in Lag. Though I've gotten a Schengen visa in the past if you care to know. I was surprised as it seems to me it took quite a while compared to @KOLAPO3 experience. Did biometrics on the 1st of this month, passport was dispatched back to BLS on the 20th, the proposed travel date on my application.

A big thanks @KOLAPO3. Your post was really helpful.

Nairaland is a solid repository of helpful information.

Good day I am thinking about visiting Czech republic for tour but I can't find any thread about the application. Based on my research, they only issue the Visa form at their embassy and it must be filled on the day of your interview. Anyone with idea on their success rate ?

Had to pay a travel agent for visa assistance. I was told that Spain's booking was closed till the start of October at the time, so we went with Italy due to time constraints.
Re: Spain Schengen Visa by Snyps: 2:23am On Nov 13, 2023
goodday good people, i am interested in traveling to Spain on a 2years visit visa but here's my problem.

i heard its difficult for virgin passports holders to get a visit visa to Spain.

its not my first time traveling, i have previously visited Indonesia, but i lost my passport there and was giving a pass at the Nigerian embassy in Jakarta which i used in coming back to Nigeria.

now that i wish to travel to Spain i am required to apply for another passport to use for the travel.
my question is, is there any chance my previous travel history to Indonesia can reflect on this new passport i am yet to collect?, so as to remove me from the first time traveller circle and help me stand a better chance of succeeding in my application for a Spanish visiting visa.

thanks.

I don't think Scheghen-Spain issues a 2-year visa. Although, I know of a frequent traveller, who has been issued a Schenghen-France 3 years visa in the past, but the person travels every now and then.

Schenghen 1st visas can start from 1 week to 1 month depending on how your application is structured.

If you made a scan/photocopy of your indonesian visa and old passport, simply submit them alongside your application.

Otherwise, I don't know any other way. Unlike UK applications, I don't think Schenghen has anywhere on their forms that request for your travel history.

Your lost passport should serve as lesson for people to always make a soft copy of their visas and travel history from time to time.

Avoid using dumped money to apply for a Schengen visa, The idea is not that you have plenty of money but that you have a RUNNING business or investment that is active, for example, You are more reliable if you have 10 million running through your account as debit and Credit and a balance of 100k, than someone who has 30 million sitting in the account for 6 months without being used or touched (they know you do borrow money for proof of funds), this also applies to visiting visa Canada!

You may have to get in touch with a travel agent conversant with that particular VAC. They usually know the insider to settle and get appointment. But this is a not so good an option, as it will keep encouraging them on this path of corruption until the stakes gets to damning proportions.

Naija corruption system is gradually taking over visa appointment slots at all the VACs.

Its just sad, very sad that whatever they put in care of our Naija people gets messed up with corruption due to our lack of discipline and penchant for getting ahead of the queue.

None of them is an exception. Serious appoinment racketeering is going on at BLS, VFS and TLS. Money is changing hands on a daily basis. The embassys needs to do something real fast.

A simple EFCC presence and investigation of staff will reveal a lot and will reset their brains for a while.

Despite that the Spain BLS is not so busy, its one of the worst as regards getting an appointment.
