Freelancer attending a conference in Germany, what visa type and what documents are needed?
I'm working as a freelancer and making good money but without official documents from the government as freelancing activity has not legalized title here in Morocco.
I just got a ticket for WordCamp Europe 2019 with a letter of invitation. Now I want to apply for a visa but don't really know how to approach, I looked on their website and there are specific documents for each job, but mine isn't included. So, my question are:
- What type of visa should I request?
- What documents do I need for my request to be approved?
- Do I even have a chance?
