Schengen tourist visa checklist for Indian families
Planning a Europe holiday? These are the documents embassies look for — and the mistakes to avoid.
A strong Schengen application has a clear itinerary, confirmed hotel bookings, travel insurance with €30,000 cover and bank statements that show stable income.
Apply to the embassy of the country where you will spend the most nights. Book appointments 6–8 weeks before peak summer travel.
