Be Ready When Schengen Appointments Open
Prepare your documents, application and booking strategy with expert support from the UK’s dedicated Schengen preparation service.
Why Schengen Visas Get Refused
Thousands of UK-based applicants are refused every year. These are the most common reasons — and they're all avoidable.
Incomplete Documents
Missing bank statements, unsigned forms, or wrong photo specs. One gap in your paperwork and the embassy returns your entire application.
Weak Supporting Evidence
Insufficient bank statements, missing employer letters, gaps in travel insurance, or documents that don't add up. Consulates need clear, consistent proof across every requirement.
Unclear Travel Purpose
Vague itineraries, no accommodation proof, or mismatched cover letters. If the embassy can't understand your trip, they won't approve it.
