Starting June 11, 2024, Schengen Visa fees will see a 12% hike, with adult fees rising from €80 to €90 and children’s fees from €40 to €45. The increase, attributed to inflation, maintains relatively low costs compared to other countries like the UK, US, and Australia. The Schengen Area, comprising 29 European countries, requires this visa for non-EU citizens for tourism or family visits, allowing a 90-day stay within a six-month period. The adjustment, reviewed every three years, reflects inflation and civil servant salaries, with potential higher fees for non-cooperating countries in re-admission efforts.
