Difficulties in obtaining a Schengen visa
In order to open the Schengen, a high official salary is required, otherwise, almost certainly, a visa will be refused. I know about the options - sponsorship letter, traveler's checks, bank statement. The first option is impossible, as for the other two, please tell me: 1) how much you need to buy travel checks in order to guarantee the opening of a visa; 2) it might be better to open a bank account instead of travel checks, if so, what is the minimum amount that should be in the account. Thanks

In which consulate are you going to apply for a Schengen visa?
аватар labeliya
The amounts vary depending on the country you are going to.
аватар PlyusheMonstr
it all depends on the consulate :)
some consulates do not accept traveler's checks
some do not accept deposit accounts at the bank
approximately 1000 euros - on the account
and 50-100 euros per day for traveler's checks
but again it all depends on the particular consulate

I was going to the Czech Republic this summer (tour for 6 days), but because of the above reasons I refused, I was afraid to lose money and end up with nothing. From the beginning, the travel agency said that it was necessary to provide checks for 100 euros, then - for 150 euros (to be sure). I was going to apply for a visa through the embassy in Lviv, because Kyiv travel agencies with a salary of less than 2-3 thousand do not even undertake to issue a visa.

Yeah
something weird...
The Czech Republic is one of the easiest countries to open a visa ...
I have literally recently traveled there with zar. fee 1700 UAH. and a bill for 9000 hryvnia.

In my opinion, it is confusing with travel: find a bank where they sell them, buy them, prepare copies for the embassy, ​​and then find out that they sell them to you for foreign currency, and buy them for hryvnia. The end result is a breakdown. I prefer a deposit with an overdraft open for it, which indicates the availability of funds and the possibility of using them at any time (the bank in the certificate will indicate not “deposit deposit in the amount of ...”, but “account No. ... with available funds in the amount of ...) and issued under this account with a card that you are on a trip and a safe and means of payment (if necessary)

If I had 9000 UAH on my account, I wouldn't worry. With such money, they would probably have opened a visa to any other European country. I chose the auto tour just because of its cheapness. It turns out that the tour itself is cheaper than opening a visa.

MarineI - want to know the minimum?
1500 UAH salary pay
6000 UAH on account
Of course, sightseeing tours are much cheaper than the necessary financial support for a visa :)
but restrictions are needed so that everyone who has saved / stole / found 200 euros could not leave the tour and stay)))))))))))
(although of course the one who wants to leave will find a way)
аватар wanderluster
I also think he will find a way.
Another question that worries me is whether the salary is really a key requirement, and even if there are 6,000 UAH in the account, they can refuse a visa if the official salary is low. What else, besides the size of the salary, can become an obstacle to opening a visa?
Thank you.
аватар PlyusheMonstr
passport denials :)
no bank account
and even a namesake who was deported from the country
and of course the bad mood of the consul :)

Thanks for the info.
Now I'm probably not going anywhere. Too many obstacles and little hope. Apparently, a visa can be denied, even if they simply do not like the color of the tourist's shoes. And if we also take into account my clean, unmarked passport, which can also serve as a reason for refusal, then ...
аватар PlyusheMonstr
yes there is nothing wrong
in the same way, the color of shoes, the mood of the consul and the surname can serve as a reason for opening a visa
the one who does not try does not go
аватар wanderluster
Thanks for the moral support.
Maybe next year I'll try.
