Common questions

Everything you need to know about Schengen visa preparation.

From document checklists to AI review — answers to the questions applicants ask most.

01What documents do I need for a Schengen tourist visa?

The core requirements include a valid passport, completed visa application form, 2 biometric photos, travel medical insurance covering at least EUR 30,000 across the Schengen area, a round-trip flight reservation, proof of accommodation for every night, a cover letter, and recent bank statements. Your exact checklist depends on your employment status, funding source, purpose of travel, and the destination country's specific overlay rules. VisaScan builds this resolved list automatically from your profile.

02How does VisaScan AI review my documents?

After you upload your documents, VisaScan validates each file, extracts text via OCR, and passes the content to Claude — Anthropic's AI model — alongside your resolved checklist. Claude checks for common quality problems, missing information, date inconsistencies, and coverage gaps. It then produces a readiness score, a list of missing documents, and plain-language fixes for every flagged issue. The AI never invents official requirements; those come from our seeded and admin-maintained Schengen rule database.

03Which Schengen countries does VisaScan support?

VisaScan covers all 29 Schengen member states. Each country has its own maintained requirement overlay, so destination-specific rules — such as bank statement thresholds, invitation letter formats, or additional identity documents — are applied on top of the base Schengen checklist automatically when you select your destination.

04Do I need to pay to build my checklist?

No. Building a personalised Schengen checklist is completely free. You answer a short profile questionnaire, and VisaScan resolves your exact document list from the rules engine at no cost and with no card required. You only pay when you want to run the AI document review, receive a readiness score, and download the PDF report.

05How long does the AI document review take?

Most analyses complete in under two minutes after you trigger the review. The exact time depends on the number and size of documents you have uploaded. You can leave and return — the result is saved to your workspace and available any time after the job completes.

06Is my passport and bank statement data private?

Yes. Documents are uploaded directly to encrypted storage via short-lived, signed URLs — your files never pass through VisaScan servers in transit. All stored data is encrypted at rest with AES-256. Sensitive document content is not written to logs or emails at any point. Sessions are hardened with strict rate limits and full audit trails.

07What does the readiness score mean?

The readiness score is a 0–100 number that reflects how complete and consistent your uploaded document pack is against your resolved checklist. Scores are grouped into three bands: Strong (typically 75 and above), Needs work (50–74), and High risk (below 50). A strong score does not guarantee approval — it means your pack matches the checklist and the AI found no obvious quality problems.

08Can I use VisaScan for business, study, or family visit visas?

Yes. VisaScan supports multiple Schengen visa purposes including tourism, business, trade fairs, family and friend visits, short study and training, medical treatment, and more. Each purpose has its own rule set, so your checklist adjusts automatically when you select your travel purpose during profile setup.

09What should I do if VisaScan flags a problem with my document?

Each flagged issue comes with a plain-language fix recommendation — for example, re-upload a clearer scan, get a certified translation, or replace an expired document. Work through the recommendations before your appointment. You can re-run the analysis any time after making changes (re-analysis is included in all paid plans).

10Does VisaScan guarantee my visa will be approved?

No. VisaScan is a document preparation tool, not a government body or immigration consultant. It helps you identify gaps and quality problems in your pack before you apply, but visa decisions are made solely by the consulate or embassy based on your full application. Always verify every output yourself before submission.
