How many visas do I need if I attend two conferences in Germany that are one month apart? [duplicate]

I am attending two independent conferences in Germany that are one month apart. Ideally, I want to apply for them concurrently, with minimal costs. I will fill two applications, and book one interview. Beyond that, do I have to pay the fees twice? Can I apply for a single multiple entries visa for a duration that covers the two conferences instead?

Best Answer

If you submit two visa applications, then you'll be paying for both of them. The fees are for processing each individual petition.

I would say that this is a situation that justifies applying for a multiple entry visa, but ultimately that is up to the visa officer. If you have a previous travel history which is good, then you shouldn't have a problem securing a multi-entry visa to cover both conferences.

What is single double multiple entry visa?

Single entry visa allows you to enter the country just once during its validity and if you want to come back, you need to apply for the visa again. While multiple entry visas allow you to come back multiple times. But be aware, there are also some visas allowing only 2 or 3 entries.

Can you have two visas at the same time Germany?

Therefore the answer is that you cannot have two visas for the same time period - either the second visa will start after the first one or the first one will be cancelled.

Can I have 2 Schengen visas at the same time?

In theory, it is not possible for a person to hold two valid short stay visas covering the same period. I have a valid Schengen visa but it does not cover my next intended stay, what can I do? In this case, it is possible to file a visa application for another Schengen visa to cover the next intended stay entirely.

Can I apply for two visas for different countries at the same time?

Yes you can. No 2 countries share data with each other. Neither are they bothered about you applying visa at the same time. You can apply visa to N number of countries at the same time.
