bummiaj: Yes my salary is been paid to my account where I hv an account balance of 800k. My company has no website , and my hr uses a gmail account. Yes I hv a leave letter and employment letter. Please whats your direct contact. Let me call you. Please lets leave all conversation open and transparent here. You can apply but if i were you i will stick to one country for now. Make hotel reservation, add your salary account, employment letter and list of places you tend to visit in the country. You also need to draw out your budget, basically explaining how much the trip will cost you, don't budget more than 2months of your salary. |

pretts: Can someone please advise me on how to go about confirming ticket reservation for a schengen visa since tickets booked without payments are usually cancelled after 24hours? I'm not sure it is advisable to pay for the ticket when the visa isn't issued yet, as most of the promotional tickets are non-refundable Visit Airfrance office to seek guidance. They would normally issue you a confirmed ticket with conditions (not necessarily paid for). |

bummiaj: Ok thanks. What do I need for my application? Since you advice that i shld visit once Europe country which is paris. What do I need? The French Embassy can be thorough and frustrating, if you know you have no travel experience, then i will not advise you to holiday in France. You will likely be refused with the indices you mentioned above. Though your pay meets the requirements, other factors do not. Travel someplace else for now and save your hard earned cash. |

@tzetzefly, thanks for the good work you're doing sir. I'm a married biz man and wanted to know how to go about securing a shengen visa. I have a building in lagos with an approved plan but not a c of o and a fairly buoyant account. However my passport is virgin. Do I have a chance and how do I go about it. Thank you sir. |

A virgin passport so to say for a visa on a trip to France, will be greatly difficult task. Try going to the UK for now to boost your travel experience. Get your documents ready: tax papers, payslips, C of O, bank statements>> personal and business, etc. Good luck. |
