In exceptional cases, it may only apply for a stay in the country that issued it. A visa is usually valid for entry into all the Schengen countries. The number of days depends on the duration of and reason for the stay in Sweden and the Schengen area. Where does the visa apply and for how long a period?Ī Schengen visa is valid for a maximum of three months (90 days) in a six-month period (180 days). Any appeal must be submitted to the embassy that made the decision. A rejected visa application can be appealed. The processing time may be longer in certain cases. Visa application decisions should be taken within 15 calendar days of the date on which the application was received. Swedish embassies and consulates-general are independent decision-making agencies for visas, although sometimes an application must be sent to the Swedish Migration Agency for a final decision. In some places Sweden is represented by another Schengen country even though there is a local Swedish Embassy. In places where Sweden does not have an embassy, another Schengen country can represent Sweden, process an application and issue visas on Sweden's behalf.
