Re: Question about tourist visa

Also, I used to get Schengen visas for 1-2 years. Now when I request to travel, they give me visas that last 3-4 days each. Have the Schengen policies changed towards Russian citizens? Why are the visas so short now compared with before? I've had to travel from UK to Europe twice in the last 6 months, and each time I would be given a visa that only would barely cover my trip. In fact, on one of my trips, I asked for a visa that would cover both trips and they gave me one that only covered the first trip.
Anna, have applied for numerous visas over the years as part of my PA duties for various countries. Sometimes it is frustrating to get only a short one trip visa. Suggest you speak to these people and make it clear you want multi-visa for a longer time, what do you need?
I would guess you would need to show print-outs of hotel bookings for more than one date (if you had letters of invitation as well, that is also good).
Big difference if the application is being done by a company or individual.
As when done by a company who an individual works for, then that company can give letter to guarantee payments for sustenance and repatriation.
Good luck
