How to Get a 5-Year Multiple Entry Schengen Visa in 2025

The 5-year Multiple Entry Schengen Visa offers travelers the convenience of long-term access to 26 European countries, including France, Germany, Spain, Italy, and more.

A visa valid for five years and allows multiple visits with a stay limit of 90 days within any 180-day period. Whether you’re a tourist seeking cultural experiences, a business professional finalizing deals, or visiting family across borders, this visa simplifies the process by eliminating the need for repeated applications. It offers a secure and flexible opportunity to travel to Europe. Here’s how to obtain it.

Eligibility: What You Need to Qualify

Embassies favor applicants with proven reliability. Key criteria include:

  • Travel History: A spotless record of Schengen visits over the past three years is critical. If you’ve held a multiple-entry visa for at least two years and followed rules—no overstays or violations—your odds jump.
  • Frequent Travel Needs: Show a clear purpose, like business meetings, family ties, or regular tourism. Tour operators suggest 2-3 annual trips on single-entry visas as a strong foundation.
  • Financial Stability: Submit bank statements (last 3-6 months), income certificates, or a job letter proving you can cover travel costs—think €50-€100 daily, per country requirements.
    Though final approval rests with consular discretion, past compliance and intent matter most.

Step-by-Step Application Process

Ready to apply? Follow these detailed steps:

  1. Choose Your Visa Type: Based on your main purpose, pick a tourist, business, or family visit. Business or frequent tourism often unlocks multiple entries.
  2. Gather Essential Documents: You’ll need:
  • A valid passport (issued within 10 years, 2 blank pages, valid 3+ months post-trip).
  • A completed, signed Schengen visa form (downloadable from embassy sites).
  • Two recent passport-sized photos (35x45mm, white background).
  • Proof of funds (e.g., 3-month bank statements, payslips).
  • Travel insurance (€30,000+ medical coverage, valid across Schengen).
  • Flight itinerary (booked or tentative) and accommodation proof (hotel reservations, host invitation).
  • Language proof (if requested, e.g., basic English/French skills).
  1. Submit and Pay: Book an embassy appointment, submit your file, and pay €90 (adults) or €45 (kids 6-12). Processing takes 15-45 days, so plan!
    Pro tip: Double-check requirements per country—some embassies may ask for extras like a cover letter.

The visa isn’t just paperwork, it’s freedom. Skip the visa line for five years, saving time and stress. Frequent flyers can hop between Schengen gems, say, a Paris weekend, then a Berlin conference—without red tape. It’s cost-effective too: one €90 fee trumps multiple single-entry costs. For Pakistanis and global travelers, it’s a smart, secure investment with big rewards—if you qualify.
