Hi anyone experienced traveling going to sweden? where did you apply for the visa?

I haven't got insurance, Is it necessary in the supporting documents?

No need of having Swiss Embassy to get Shengen Visa.

You can use services of German Embassy to get this.

It is in Bin Omran.... Opposit side of Ahli Hospital,, the road near Salaam HO.

( i dont know they changed location )

you can apply for schengen visa through any other schengen countries (France, Germany - pretty much all of the EU countries) although apparently they all have different rules, so look around. I assume you will be catching a flight through another EU country anyways, so just have to have a stop over probably. good luck!

I think Swedish Embassy is in Kuwait. There was a thread in QL earlier in 2010 regareding this issue (do a search). You may call and ask them or you may check with the Embassies of other Schengen countries (France, Germany etc.) for further details. I dont think you need insurance documents for applying the visa.

Hi,

I believe all Schengen visa applications are dealt with via the German Embassy in Doha.

Probably best to check their website for further details.

Best of luck.
