Why the Schengen visa is denied
A Schengen visa is an entry permit andtemporary stay in the Schengen countries. Citizens of Russia are denied a Schengen visa quite rarely, but it still happens. In the vast majority of cases, the problem lies in incorrectly selected or documented documents. In general, we can say that the Schengen visa is issued to citizens of Russia quite easily.

4
No travel booking, that is, there are no reservationstickets to the country, hotel reservations, invitations from the host or tickets for events. Employees of the consulate prefer to know what you are going to do in the Schengen area.

Negative history of stay in the Schengen areaor Consulates. If a person commits any violations in the territory of the Schengen countries, they are entered in a special database.
