Yes — if you are a national of a country that currently requires a Schengen visa to visit Europe, you will still need to apply for one. The EU Entry/Exit System (EES) and ETIAS are not visas.• EES is now fully operational across the Schengen area (rolled out from October 2025 and completed in April 2026). It records travellers' entries and exits digitally, with fingerprints and a facial image, replacing passport stamps.• ETIAS will be a travel authorisation for visa-exempt nationals — similar to the U.S. ESTA, a €20 online authorisation. Its launch has been delayed and is currently expected in 2027. Neither EES nor ETIAS replaces a Schengen visa.If you normally need a Schengen visa, you must continue to apply for it through the usual process. Our team at Multi Travel Visas can assist you with the application and documentation to ensure a smooth experience.

Getting a Schengen visa appointment in London has become increasingly difficult because public visa centres are often fully booked weeks in advance. High travel demand, limited appointment slots, and post-pandemic backlogs mean that finding a convenient date can be stressful and time-consuming.

These exclusive appointment slots are available through our agency and can help you secure an earlier date than what’s shown on the public booking system. We assist with all stages of your application — from document preparation to submission through TLS or VFS centres — making the process faster, easier, and stress-free.

Many applicants confuse the term Priority Schengen Visa with fast processing — they’re different.A Priority Schengen Visa usually means that you’ll get a sooner appointment than what’s available through the public booking system, and sometimes access to a premium lounge at the visa centre.

For example, France generally processes visas within 5–15 working days, while other Schengen countries may require a minimum of 15 working days or more.At Multi Travel Visas, we help our clients secure the earliest possible appointments.

A Short-Stay Schengen Visa (Type C) allows you to stay in the Schengen Area for up to 90 days within any 180-day period. It’s used for tourism, business trips, family or friend visits, events, or short training. Most people applying from the UK fall into this category. A Long-Stay Schengen Visa (Type D) is for those who intend to live, work, or study in one Schengen country for more than 90 days. It is issued by the individual country’s authorities, not under the general Schengen visa rules. If you are travelling for a holiday, business meeting, or family visit, you must apply for a short-stay visa, even if you wish to stay longer or hope for a multiple-entry visa.
