Why only give it once before Shen Gen?

The Schengen visa usually gives the applicant the right to enter the country once, because the Schengen visa is stipulated by the European Visa Agreement (Schengen Agreement). According to the Schengen agreement, Schengen visa holders can freely transit and stay in the 26 member countries of Schengen area during the validity period of the visa.

Why only give one entry permit? This is mainly to ensure that the applicant's stay in Schengen meets the requirements of visa officers and border control.

There are several reasons for one-time entry restrictions:

1. Avoid illegal stay: The one-time entry restriction of Schengen visa can prevent the applicant from staying in Schengen area beyond the time allowed by the visa. The visa officer will evaluate the purpose and itinerary of the applicant and give the corresponding stay time.

2. Control the risk of immigration: One-off entry restrictions can also help control the risk of immigration and the entry of illegal workers. By limiting applicants to only one entry, visa officers can better monitor the use and stay time of visas.

3. Ensure the compliance of applicants: Giving applicants a one-time entry permit can ensure that they meet the visa requirements when entering the country and provide necessary documents and information. If the applicant fails to enter the country according to the regulations, he may face the risk of being refused entry.

It should be noted that Schengen visa holders can enter and leave the Schengen area many times within the validity period of the visa after their first entry, as long as they abide by the provisions of the visa and the duration of each entry. Therefore, although only one entry permit is granted, Schengen visa holders can still travel freely in the Schengen area within the validity period of the visa.
