HRprof:
Has anyone travelled to France recently? Does Covid PCR Test required for airlines? Those full vaccinated do they need to provide Covid result before boarding?

@josephb I’m in the same mess with you , I would like to know the outcome I was giving 1 month visa trying to buy ticket saying they can’t board tourist visa to France at the moment

lamdec:
Thank you very much.

I will apply for each of us separately as you suggested.

I have a baby and I know transit visa is free for her but do I still register for her on bfs and submit her passport?

lamdec:
Please I have been trying to book an appointment on the vfs website and Ii have been unable to.
After filling all the necessary details and I want to choose a date, it becomes unresponsive and then takes me back to the login page.

I am trying to book an appointment for an airport transit visa as I already got my flight.

Please does anyone have a solution to this

Lizzer:
Ok chiall
Thank you, do you know the link to book appointment?
Kindly share.

Lizzer:
Good morning chiall, hope you are doing well . Please i would to know if you booked appointment before submitting your application to VFC for France tourist visa. If yes, i would also like to know how much is the appointment fees. Because my agent is asking me to bring 20,000 naira for appointment.
Thank you and hoping to get your response soon.

Lizzer:
Good morning Josephb
Thanks for the below message. i had a permanent resident visa to Spain in 2016 which i did not use, Spain being part of Schengen. So if am applying for France 2 weeks tourist visa, should i still apply as a first timer?
Secondly, do you think having a Spanish unused visa in my International passport will be an added advantage to my application?
Thank you and hoping to get your response soon.

Appointment categories are divided into two.

1) For frequent travellers . Meaning if you have been to either UK, US, Europe before. Your Appointment schedule is different.

2) For non frequent travellers. Meaning anybody who has not been to those countries I mentioned above has a different Appointment category.

Now, it is only natural for those who have not been to UK,US, or Europe before to be more in number. That's why they had to split it because of the covid 19 pandemic. My Mentor personally asked them about this.

Davidson5:
Concerning point 3.
Can you explain further?
Non frequent travelers have a chance

mikeerrr:
with a single entry you cannot apply for turkey e visa

ATPx:
Please research more and come back here and correct yourself. Lol

ATPx:
The French consulate represent the Netherlands. So you will be doing everything exactly like you are applying for France. Only difference is that your documents will be packaged in an Orange bag. You know Nederland = Oranje. So Orange color for you.

And the visa application center is VFS Global Lekki Lagos.

And to your question, this is the website https://visa.vfsglobal.com/nga/en/fra

davodyguy:
Exactly what we did.

Mentioned only France, but now due to strike, thinking of going to Amsterdam and Brussels/brugge

davodyguy:
This place is a junk ground like Ajegunle or Ìsàlè Eko.

It's because they dashed us Visa for $40 each, that I decided to spend 3 days here.

Not worth it one bit.

Taxi drivers don't speak English, Hotel attendants don't speak English, we started communicating with signs and hands.

The damn cold is killing. The heater can't even prevent me from having flu like symptoms.

Yes it can be granted as long as it's still valid within the period of travel. You should use either Turkish airlines,,Pegasus airline, onur air or Atlasglobal Airlines. Those are the prerequisites for a Turkish E visa. In event you fly another airline from the above mentioned, you dont qualify.

You can do multi cities booking- lagos -cdg- Istanbul- lagos with Turkish airlines.

Multiple -entry visas are possible, but I don't think you can get one for tourism. Most multiple-entry Schengen visas issued are for frequent travelers for business purposes, so you need to have a history of travel for business reasons to the Schengen Area first. Most of the people I know who have had one were business people, including a chap who used to go frequently to buy things from Germany for sale here and another chap whose company used to send him to attend meetings and trainings in France.

I have a Turkish friend who had a 3-year one which she used occasionally for vacationing, but she told me she'd usually sign up for one conference here and there to justify the trip.

davodyguy:
Thanks so much for this response.

That's why I like this forum. Some really nasty people and some real human beings are here.

Paid ₦300k for 10 nights in Paris via Airbnb
Booked Seine River boat cruise (hoping this has nothing to do with the strike) for 26/12/19
Book Big Bus Tour hop on and hop off Bus(hoping this isn't going to be affected by the strike too) 25/12/19.

From Boxing day we might have to move to Brussels or Brugge or even Amsterdam.

Quite unfortunate.

Just that my wife wouldn't want to go alone. I have a court case that I need to attend to on Monday as defense counsel.

This life

The below images may be of help sir.

OmoBendel24:
You should have had and used a previous double/multiple entry Schengen Tourists/Visitors Visa as some sort of prerequisite, and must be able to demonstrate that you are or you will be a frequent traveller to the territory, especially with that previous visa, there are exceptions though, your job and its required frequent schengen travels for instance. And that you understand the 90 in 180 days rule of their visa usage.

My understanding though.

Beverlyhills:
Unfortunately, there's no way to extend a Schengen tourist visa beyond 90 days. However, with some money in the bank, ingenuity and paperwork, it is possible to obtain a long-term visa in a specific Schengen country, which will work as a valid visa for the entire Schengen zone.

Apply for a long-term visa in France, Spain, Sweden, Italy or Germany. Research which country's long-term visa works best for the travel plans. For instance, some countries have longer application turnarounds than others. These visitor visas grant travel for one year at a time and while they don't require proof of study, they do require proof of sufficient funds. They want reassurance that there is no work being done illegally, so it is necessary to show proof that of self support. No set amount is listed by any of these countries.


author=josephb post=84929905]Hi,
I would like to know can a France Schengen Tourist visa of up to a year validity (Multiple Entry) be requested for and granted? In such a way as to use it frequently as the likes of the UK and USA?

If yes how do one go about it?

Cyberknight:
It's OK if you visit other Schengen states with your visa as long as your visa clearly allows you entry into other Schengen states (bears the inscription "ETATS SCHENGEN'). It doesn't matter if you didn't mention it in your application as long as you comply with the other rules and your stay in France is the major purpose of your obtaining the visa from the French embassy, is not less than your stay in the other Schengen countries you visit, and is in line with what you filled in the form, etc.

There are no border controls within the Schengen Area so your passport is only stamped once at the point of entry into the zone. Make sure you have a coherent itinerary in case they ask to see it at immigration and carry a reasonable amount of cash commensurate with your proposed stay irrespective of whether you are going to use your bank cards or not. Most countries expect you to budget about 50 - 60 euro a day exclusive of hotel accommodation so I usually carry 500 euro for each proposed week of stay.

And this may sound trite, but ensure you carry printouts of everything, your ticket, hotel reservations, etc. I saw one chap at the immigration line in Charles de Gaulle last year who when asked about his trip now brought out his phone to start showing them something. Of course they took the phone, then took the chap off to the back room for further questioning.
