The European Union (EU) recently introduced a revamped visa system tailored specifically for Indian nationals.
This new system is allowing Indians access to long-term, multi-entry Schengen visas.
Normally a Schengen visa permits a brief stay of up to 90 days within a 180-day timeframe.
The Indian travellers can now obtain a two-year Schengen visa, a marked improvement from the shorter validity periods previously available.
To qualify for this extended two-year visa, the applicants must have acquired and appropriately utilised two Schengen visas within the preceding three years.
