| Similar to Europe: for Schengen visas, you must apply to the consulate responsible for your country of legal residence. https://home-affairs.ec.europa.eu/policies/schengen/visa-pol... |

| I believe your link says you must apply at the country you're visiting, or the country you're visiting first. And you must apply at the consulate for the country you are a resident of. So if I was applying to visit France, I could do so from the US embassy in France. This seems to differ from the new US rule where you must also apply in the country you're a resident of. |

| ▲ | throw-the-towel 2 days ago | parent | next [-] | | Why would you apply at the US consulate for a visa to France? That makes no sense no matter how I try to interpret. The way it works is, if you're applying for a French visa in Mongolia and you're not a Mongolian national, you need to provide your Mongolian residence permit or else your application will be refused outright. | |
| ▲ | em-bee 2 days ago | parent | prev [-] | | you got that mixed up: you would apply at the french embassy in the US. and, that's the key point for schengen: you would not apply at the eg german embassy in the US, even though both would get you the same visa. the US embassy can't give you a schengen visa, and you could not even get to the one in france since you are not there yet. and if you visit multiple countries, it's either the one where you spend most of the time, or the one where you enter the schengen area (this may be different from the country you visit first because you could have a flight transfer inside schengen). at least as far as i know. |
