What are the Benefits Of Schengen Visa?

Before Schengen people from some countries were required to have separate visas for every country in Europe they wished to visit. A vast network of border posts existed around the continent which disrupted traffic and trade, causing delays and costs to both businesses and visitors.

Withthe Schengen Agreement, border posts have been closed between participatingcountries. Road traffic is no longer delayed; road, rail and air passengers no longer have their identity checked when crossing borders.
