This video shows the step-by-step process of filling out the questionnaire. The information printed in the article is presented in the video in a condensed form:

Sergey, Samara:

“Filled out a questionnaire with friends. They planned to go to Italy for a week. Therefore, they requested a single-entry visa (in paragraph 24 they ticked the box next to “uno”). I was also going to the beer festival in the fall. I have a positive visa history (I flew to Italy last summer), so I swung at multiple entry. In paragraph 25 he prescribed - 365 days. But I filled in points 29 and 30 according to the data of air tickets and hotel reservations.

“The photographer let me down - he photographed against the background of floral wallpaper. The photo must be on a white background only. The form was returned to me. I had to rewrite everything. Be careful!"

When the application form is completely filled out, a color photograph taken specifically for the visa must be pasted into it. We will tell you which one - everything is very simple, but you need to be extremely careful, contact only proven salons!

Well, just in case, complete.
