Visa information

Lebanese citizens and third country citizens with valid residency in Lebanon are applying for short term visas at VFS Global in Hamra Apply for a visa | vfsglobal

At the Embassy for any long term visa and for short term visas of Syrian citizens an appointment has to be made by email at this address only: Beirut.Consulate@mzv.gov.czEmails send to other email address will not be answered. The email must be written only in Czech or English and must include:

  • • Subject: full name and nationality (as stated in the passport), visa type (short term/long term) and purpose of stay (e.g.: "ERASMUS+, study, family, etc.") 
  • • 1 applicant = 1 email. Only one applicant can be ordered in each email (only exemptions are children traveling with the parents)
  • To arrange an appointment for a long-term visa/stay, you must also send a scan of the document stating the purpose of stay (in .jpg or .pdf format), e.g. confirmation of study, birth certificate, employment contract and a scan of the passport data page

In case the requested information is not provided, the appointment shall NOT be made. The Embassy will not answer emails that do not follow these rules. If you fulfill all the requirement your email will be added to the queue in the order in which it was received.

Applicants who are not citizens of countries (Lebanon, Syria) within the jurisdiction of the Embassy of the Czech Republic in Beirut must also attach a document proving that they have been permitted to reside in the country within the jurisdiction of the Embassy for at least the previous two years. If residence cannot be proven, the applicant must submit the application in their home country.

The assigned date cannot be changed. If you do not arrive, your date will be forfeited. If you arrive late without prior apology, your date will also be forfeited - in such a case, the Embassy of the Czech Republic in Beirut will already be focusing on other applicants who arrived on time.
