Enter with another country's visa

Countries you can visit with a Schengen visa or European residence

24 destinations will, if your passport needs a visa for them, accept a document from Schengen and the EU instead, or let you use it to apply for an e-Visa or a visa on arrival. Each rule has its own conditions: some only work with a multiple-entry or already used visa, others only with residence, and some only for certain nationalities. Choose your passport to see the ones that apply to you.
