ETIAS is indispensable for the security of the Schengen area. The effort is low and also the costs are kept within limits. Once issued, the tourist can travel in the Schengen area for three years. Of course, travelers are not allowed to stay there indefinitely. Unlike ESTA, ETIAS has a very precise regulation. Entry is possible for 90 days within a period of 180 days.
The validity of ETIAS can vary
As mentioned at the beginning, the validity is three years. However, this is not always the case. The validity is linked to the passport. If this is still valid for at least three years, ETIAS is also valid for this long.
The situation is different if the passport has a shorter remaining period. In this case, ETIAS loses its validity with the passport.
A passport may also lose its validity due to other circumstances. If the applicant marries before the expiration date, he/she will get a new passport. In this case, a new ETIAS must be applied for the next time the applicant travels to the Schengen area.
Tourists must answer a number of security and health questions. If any of the answers change during the validity, the ETIAS will also become invalid.
The first country of travel must be indicated on the application
ETIAS is of course valid for the entire Schengen area. When applying, the traveler must indicate the first country of travel. This is mandatory. From here he can visit other countries. On further entries, he can visit the country of his choice.
He can stay in the country for 90 days, after which he must leave. These 90 days are for a 180-day period. So it is not possible to stay in the Schengen area for the whole validity of ETIAS.
For which trips is ETIAS valid
There are a large number of Schengen visas and national visas. These remain valid after the introduction of ETIAS. ETIAS has a narrowly defined group of people. Initially, only residents of certain countries are allowed to travel.
With an ETIAS permit, only those entering the Schengen area as tourists or business travelers may travel. However, this does not mean that ETIAS can be used to take up employment. Rather, travelers can use it to explore business opportunities, attend conferences and trade shows. Those who want to meet with a business partner can also do so with an ETIAS.
Medical treatment is also required with an ETIAS visa. In the future, an ETIAS will also be necessary for transit.
