Withdrawing a Schengen visa (business class) application
I recently applied for a business Schengen visa to Switzerland (from India). However my visa approval is delayed and the purpose of the trip, which was to attend some crucial meetings, is not applicable any more. My client and I do not feel it is necessary to make the trip anymore and would like to withdraw/cancel my visa application.
Is this easy to do? Will canceling my application reflect poorly on me and hamper my future chances of traveling to the EU region or to Switzerland?
