Swiss Embassy in Georgia to Launch Online Visa System

Next month residents of Georgia applying for a Swiss visa will be able to make their applications in a more user-friendly manner.

From August 3, the Swiss Embassy in Georgia will launch an online visa application and appointment system that will allow applicants to register their visa applications for a Schengen visa C (stay of less than 90 days) online with the Swiss Embassy.

“The website will also give the opportunity to book an appointment for the visit at the counter of the embassy. Please note that the applicant still needs to come in person to the Embassy in order to go through the visa-interview, lodge the printed application form and the supporting documents, pay the visa fee and register the biometric data (fingerprints),” stated the Embassy’s press office.

All applicants are encouraged to make use of the new online system.
