This allows for free and unrestricted movement of people within the area, making it an attractive destination for travelers, students, workers, and families.

Understanding the Schengen Area

The Schengen Area, named after the Schengen Agreement of 1985, includes most European Union (EU) countries and a few non-EU countries. This region is known for its seamless travel experience, where once you enter any Schengen country, you can travel freely to any other Schengen country without going through additional border checks.

The member countries include popular destinations like France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands, among others. The Schengen visa allows you to stay in the Schengen Area for up to 90 days within a 180-day period, making it ideal for short-term visits such as tourism, business, or family visits
