Minimum bank statement, fee for Switzerland trip visa from Pakistan

Switzerland joined the Schengen Area on December 12, 2008, allowing easy travel for tourists, visitors, and business travelers within member states.

The Schengen Association Agreement sets a rule of a maximum 90-day stay within any 180-day period for short visits. This agreement establishes a common visa policy for these stays across all Schengen countries.

For Pakistani nationals, a Type C visa, commonly known as a Schengen visa, is needed for stays up to 90 days. The visa covers the entire Schengen area.

When applying for the visa, a non-refundable fee of Rs27,000 is required. Even if the application is withdrawn or rejected, the fee won’t be reimbursed.

Applicants must show proof of sufficient funds for their stay, with a minimum required amount for each day. This includes providing bank and credit statements for the last 6 months, as well as the previous year.

In summary, the Schengen visa facilitates short-term travel in Switzerland for up to 90 days, with specific requirements such as a visa fee and proof of financial capability.
