For tourism in Europe, the requirements can vary depending on the specific country or countries you plan to visit. If you are a citizen of a visa-exempt country, such as the United States, Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, you generally do not need a visa for short stays (up to 90 days in a 180-day period) in the Schengen Area, which includes most European Union countries as well as Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, and Switzerland.
Schengen Visa:
If you plan to visit Schengen Area countries, you may need to apply for a Schengen Visa. This visa allows you to travel to any of the Schengen Area countries for up to 90 days within a 180-day period for tourism, business, or family visits.
Duration of Stay:
The Schengen Visa allows for stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period. If you wish to stay longer or visit non-Schengen countries, you may need to apply for a visa specific to those countries.
Requirements:
Generally, you will need a valid passport, travel itinerary, proof of accommodation, proof of sufficient funds for your stay, travel insurance, and a completed visa application form. You may also need to provide additional documents depending on the country you are applying to.
