Does Ireland belong to Schengen?

Question 1: Irish and Schengen visas Hello, my son is studying in Ireland. I went to see him from China in June, and visited several countries by the way. I hope my suggestion is helpful to you.

1. Choose one of the 13 Schengen countries where you are going to apply for a visa. Like France. With a visa, you can enter any 13 country without any problems.

There are some skills. 1. In order to save the travelling expenses, you'd better choose the country with a visa center in your city among the 13 countries to submit the information. Second, in order to ensure the success of the visa, when doing the information, we only said that we would go to their country, such as France. In this way, this country has no reason for you to submit information to other Schengen countries. This is very useful.

Your family has come to Ireland, so you'd better let them go to England. Here is also a suggestion. This year, in order to develop tourism, Ireland will provide visa-free entry to Ireland for those who hold less than 0/0 British tourist visa/KLOC-0. The stay in Ireland can't exceed the time signed by the UK. In this way, you can get a visa to Britain, and you can play in both countries.

EU ≠ Schengen ≠ Euro ≠ EU ≠ Schengen ≠ Euro ≠ UK ≠ Ireland ≠ Sweden ≠ Denmark ≠ Norway ≠ Iceland ≠ Liechtenstein ≠ Switzerland ≠. Does this word confuse you? First of all, we need to know which countries are Schengen countries. 1In June, 1985, five EU countries signed the Schengen Convention in the small Luxembourg city. The Convention came into full force in July 1995. The member countries of the Schengen Convention are also called "Schengen countries" or "Schengen countries", and the whole member country is also called "Schengen area". The purpose of the Schengen Convention is to cancel the border checkpoints between them and coordinate the border control outside the Schengen area. That is, the border control between member States will be abolished, and people holding valid identity cards or visas of any member state can move freely within the territory of all member States. According to the agreement, tourists can legally visit all other Schengen countries as long as they have a valid visa in one of them. Later, it joined many countries one after another. There are 26 Schengen countries, including Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Italy, Greece, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia, Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Switzerland and Liechtenstein. Among them, Schengen countries are all EU countries except Norway, Iceland and Switzerland. On the contrary, Britain, Ireland, Romania and Bulgaria are EU countries, but they are not members of the Schengen Agreement. So, what is a Schengen visa? According to the Schengen Convention, the above-mentioned 26 Schengen countries can issue "unified Schengen visas" for foreigners who visit for a short time. If they get a Schengen visa from one of the countries, they can visit other Schengen countries without other visas. This greatly facilitates students' daily life. They can travel and work freely in their spare time, or they can move to other countries for employment in the future, creating broad development prospects. The specific application requirements for the Schengen visa are as follows: 1. If you only go to Schengen, you have to apply for a visa for that country. 2. When transiting a Schengen country or several Schengen countries to another Schengen country, you need to apply for a visa from another Schengen country (country of entry). 3. To go to several Schengen countries, you must apply for a visa to the Schengen countries (the main visiting countries) or the Schengen countries with the longest stay. An invitation letter with a list of Schengen countries must fill in the length of stay in each Schengen country on the visa application form. If you can't determine the main country to visit, apply for a visa to the first Schengen country. 5. The material requirements for issuing visas in various countries remain unchanged, and the receiving country may request supplementary materials when necessary. 6. Schengen visas cannot be applied one by one, and must be handled in a Schengen country. 7. According to the Schengen Agreement, a country's visa can enter other Schengen countries, and being refused by one country means being refused by other Schengen countries. Through the above introduction, you must have a good understanding of Schengen visa. Entering the Schengen member countries for further study or study will help you appreciate the folk customs of many countries and make you have a more perfect and meaningful trip to foreign countries.
