Holland Visa Application 2021 & Requirement

The Netherlands is in the Schengen area, this refers to the free travel area established by most EU member states in which freedom of movement is granted. Hence, the visa application largely depends on the reason for wanting to travel to the Netherlands. There are different types of visas and each of them has its own requirements.–Advertisements–

The different visa types include; single-entry, double-entry, multiple-entry, and airport transit visas that enable holders to enter the Netherlands for stays up to 90 days in periods of 180 days. Single-entry visa grants one-time entrance whereas double-entry visa holders may travel twice at designated times. On the flip side, a multiple entry visa grants consecutive visits as long as it does not exceed the time constraints.
