The documentation for Schengen Visa is rather complex and requires attention to detail. Every Embassy asks for some specific documents.Typically you need 2 yr IT Returns, 3 month Bank statements, Covering letter, flight and hotel bookings, Travel Insurance and some additional documents specific to the case.


The rejection rates are very high making it worthwhile to route your case through a travel professional who will help you with the correct documentation.
