In most cases, the applicant receives a positive response within a few days. In case the integrated databases show a hit, the application has to be examined more closely by hand. Only if the risk is too high for an ETIAS application, it will be rejected.
An appeal can be made against a negative decision
If the ETIAS application is rejected, this can have a negative impact on the further travel activity. For example, the ESTA application will ask you if you have ever been refused an entry visa. If this is the case, under certain circumstances no further ETIAS application is possible. It is not yet clear whether this is really the case.
If the traveler thinks that there might be problems, it is sometimes better to apply for a visa right away. Although this takes longer and costs more, it has the advantage that the traveler is screened more thoroughly.
If the application is unexpectedly rejected, there is still the possibility to appeal against it. The rejection notice will probably state the deadline and the position.
It is best to lodge an objection in writing or for transcription at the appropriate office.
An appeal will of course take time. Who fears problems should place its request in time
Make a visa application in case of refusal
If ETIAS is rejected, often the only way out is a Schengen visa. This is a bit more complicated, costs more time and money. This must therefore be applied for in time.
First of all there is a large number of different visas. If you want to enter with ETIAS as a tourist, you need a tourist visa. There are also visas for studies, for business travelers, for employment and some more.
A Schengen visa is usually submitted through the consulate of the country where the traveler spends most of his time. However, there are also other solutions. The best way for the traveler to obtain information is via the Internet.
Often the applicant has to appear in person. For this purpose, he or she makes an appointment. Then he or she must fill out the application. These are available on the Internet. Various documents are necessary for a correct application. These must be submitted in full.
The fee is much higher than for ETIAS. If the application is rejected, the traveler will not get the fee back. This fee is for the processing of the application and has nothing to do with the entry.
