Short-stay visas issued by Schengen countries

  • 28 May 2026

These statistics show the number of visa applications and visas issued for every country that is a member of the Schengen area – as from 2009.

You can also view this data by the country from which the applications were made (i.e., by consulate).

The data on visas applied for at the consulates of Cyprus concern national visas and they are shown on a different sheet in the Excel file.

Ireland is not covered, as it maintains an independent visa policy from that of the Schengen area.
