Schengen Visa From Nigeria (quick Question) by Emmagency(op): 11:05am On Jun 28, 2015
Hi y'all. My uncle with his family (6 kids and his wife) are planning to have a trip into the Schengen area from Nigeria, with France as the first point of entry. Having checked the requirement list I found this:

[b]Make a clear copy of all the original documents, Make a clear coloured copies of last two US, UK, Canada, Japan , any Schengen visa and two clear coloured copies of passport data page.[b]

Question is, is this actually mandatory or one is just required to show them if you've had them in the past?

Because it doesn't really make sense. I understand it's just a way of making sure they don't give visas to people that may refuse to return but then these children don't have any of the required travel history (just dubai) and they're requesting for not just one but two previous visas. If all the countries mentioned above make it mandatory as well then no one would be able to travel.

Since the kids haven't travel to non of these country mentioned, that doesn't mean that they are not qualify to Schengen Visa Application. They can even apply with a virgin passport and Dubai is even an advantage of travel history for the kids. They only need to meet up with the other documents requires. French embassy will ask the sponsor ''your Uncle'' to provide his 3 months bank account statement must 'goboi' i mean huge amount code of operation because of the cost of the trip for the whole family...Father, Mother with six children.
