Pre-travel verification for Schengen
Pre-travel verification for Schengen
ETIAS Schengen provides a pre-travel verification service for nantials of countries that do not require visas for the Schnegen zone. It is still required for these nationals to meet up with certain criteria, therefore they are advised to apply for a pre-entry verification.
The pre-travel verification is a check based on the applicants travel and travel-document data in which we verifiy if everything meets up with the obligated Schengen rules. Non-visa travellers are still required to meet up with the Schengen requirments. The application is processed within 24 hours.
ETIAS stands for European Travel Information and Authorization System. This system, expected to go into effect in 2024, is inspired by the U.S. ESTA system. Unlike the pre-travel verification, your data will be shared directly with the border authorities. As for now the ETIAS system is expected to go live from mid 2025.
