- Single, double or multiple entry — shown on the visa as 1, 2 or MULT

الحصول على موعد — احجز مبكرًا · وفق إفادات المستخدمين، تم التحقق في 2026-06-13
- تُطرح المواعيد على دفعات دون جدول معلن ثابت — غالبًا في الصباح الباكر بالتوقيت المحلي، وصباح الإثنين، وحول اليوم الأول من الشهر.
- في القنصليات المزدحمة (مثل فرنسا وإيطاليا وإسبانيا في المدن الكبرى) قد تُحجز الدفعة خلال دقائق — سجّل وادخل إلى حسابك قبل البحث.
- تتوفّر مواعيد طوال اليوم بسبب الإلغاءات، لذا تحقّق يوميًا حتى لو ظهر «لا توجد مواعيد».
- لذلك قدّم في أقرب وقت مسموح — حتى ستة أشهر قبل السفر. الانتظار حتى شهر أو شهرين غالبًا يعني عدم توفّر أي موعد.
