Short-stay Visa (Schengen Visa)

Schengen (short-stay) visas for stay up to 90 days are issued by diplomatic missions.  
 

Applicants need to book their appointment The Embassy's monthly capacity is 48 slots for short-stay (Schengen) visa applicants, 12 slots for long-stay visa and 12 slots for long-term residence permit applicants.

The Embassy of the Czech Republic accepts visa applications only if the Czech Republic is the country of your main destination (depends on length and purpose of your stay). If you are going for tourism, the main country of your destination is the one where you spend the longest time, not necessarily the country of your first entry!  Only if the main destination cannot be determined (i.e. you spend the same number of nights in all countries), please submit your application at the Embassy of the country of your first entry. If you are unsure where to apply, please contact us beforehand.

Schengen Visa with Limited Territorial Validity

This type of Schengen visa is valid for the territory of one or more Member States but not all Schengen States.

Airport Transit Visa

The Chicago Convention on International Civil Aviation establishes the principle of free transit through the international transit areas of the airports. However, there are some exemptions to this principle and the citizens of Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Ghana, Iran, Iraq, Nigeria, Pakistan, Somalia and Sri Lanka need an airport transit visa to transit through the international transit areas of the Schengen Area airports. Citizens of several other countries need an airport transit visa only in some Schengen countries, so they are recommended to contact the Embassy of the relevant Schengen country.

The following categories of persons shall be exempt from the requirement to hold an airport transit visa:

a) Holders of a valid uniform visa, national long-stay visa or residence permit issued by a Member State

b) Third-country nationals holding a valid residence permit issued by Andorra, Canada, Japan, San Marino or the United States of America guaranteeing the holder’s unconditional readmission

c) third-country nationals holding a valid visa for a Member State or for a State party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area of 2 May 1992, Canada, Japan or the United States of America, or when they return from those countries after having used the visa

d) Family members of citizens of the European Union

e) Holders of diplomatic passports

f) Flight crew members who are nationals of a contracting Party to the Chicago Convention on International Civil Aviation.
