Once you've chosen the visa type and scheduled an appointment, prepare the necessary documents:

After compiling the necessary documents, submit them to the embassy on the scheduled day. The visa processing time is approximately 30-45 business days. Plan well to ensure a smooth visa application.

Several factors can lead to visa rejection, such as unclear travel purposes, incomplete documents, false information to the embassy, travel history, insufficient financial evidence, or weak ties to the home country. Accurate and careful preparation is crucial.
