IMPORTANT!
When applying for a visa for the first time, applicants must be fingerprinted and provide a photograph, which can be scanned or taken at the same time as submitting the application. Therefore, the personal presence of the applicant is mandatory. If you have been fingerprinted in the last 59 months to obtain a visa, personal attendance is not required. In this case, the application can be submitted by an authorized person if there is a written power of attorney and a copy of the identity card of the authorized person. In some cases, the personal presence of the applicant may still be mandatory. The following applicants are exempt from the requirement to submit fingerprints:
• children under 12 years old;
• persons for whom fingerprinting is physically impossible. If fewer than 10 fingers can be fingerprinted, the maximum number of fingerprints is recorded. However, if this was a temporary obstacle, the applicant is required to provide fingerprints the next time they apply. The Embassy may request information about the reasons for the temporary obstacle;
• heads of state and government, members of government and their accompanying spouses, as well as members of their official delegations on official trips at the invitation of governments or international organizations;
• monarchs and other prominent members of the royal family on official trips at the invitation of governments or international organizations.
Consular fees are accepted only in EURO! The consular fee must be paid through the bank to the bank account of the Embassy. Details are provided at the time of submission of documents. Visa fees are not charged:
• from children under six years of age;
• from pupils, undergraduates, graduate students and accompanying teachers traveling for the purpose of training or introductory training;
