To apply for a visa you first have to request an appointment by email (free of charge), using the form stated below. As it is high season, the Embassy highly recommends that you apply for the appointment at least 3-4 weeks before your departure date. Please keep the given appointment as it might not be possible anymore to reschedule a new one, due to the very limited availabilities. Thank you for your understanding.
