Schengen visa

Do organizers offer some help with visa? It is new to me, I need some help, preferably online. Incnis Mrsi 16:06, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

In a Web-form at https://secure.e-konsulat.gov.pl/Wiza/FormularzWiza_2.aspx , are the following data (about Wikimedia.pl) correct?

	* 31. Фамилия/-и, имя (имена) лица, приглашающего в государство/-а – члены (-ы) Шенгенского соглашения. В случае отсутствия такового – название гостиницы (гостиниц) или адрес/-а временного пребывания на территории государств-участников Шенгенского соглашения

It's correct. Ency 13:21, 27 June 2010 (UTC)

If I try to arrive to Poland via some third country in Schengen zone (say, Sweden), will approval be less likely? e-konsulat.gov.pl/Wiza/FormularzWiza_2.aspx has such option as 23. Member State of first entry. Incnis Mrsi 11:35, 23 June 2010 (UTC)

I don't know. Perhaps this will have an impact, maybe not. Ency 13:21, 27 June 2010 (UTC)

As far as I know, it shouldn't, since the Schengen Area is one big area where you can freely enter through one place and exit through another. Although I do not need a visa, in the event that I needed to get one, you're supposed to get a visa for the country you'll be staying in the longest (Poland), stops notwithstanding. --Sky Harbor 17:18, 27 June 2010 (UTC)

Longest or "more important" stay. We already have some participants that attend some other event in France before Wikimania and they have applied for a visa in the French consulate, and have received it.  « Saper // @talk »  21:10, 27 June 2010 (UTC)
