Schengen Visa - EUROSTAR travel ticket

[tomdavis]

Hi,

Me and my wife wants to visit European countries. She is 25 weeks pregnant. We live in UK but not it’s citizen. I contacted Mawista travel insurer (mentioned in schengen visa website) but they don’t cover existing pregnancy. We want to enter France or Switzerland first.

1. Can u plz tel which travel insurance company can cover pregnancy?

2. What other documents are required?

3. Does she need certificate of being fit by GP (doctor)?

4. Is it good to just reserve the hotel and flight booking OR shall we pay the actual ticket?


My mother is in our home country. She has 6 months Uk visa. She came to Uk last month and went back.

She will apply schengen visa from home country , then come back to Uk and we all go to France or Switzerland together.

5. Is it fine if she comes to Uk first or she has to go to France or Switzerland directly?

Thanks
Tom

Thanks

6. Can we book Eurostar tickets for reservation or only flight tickets are required?

Plz correct me if I am getting confused.

Does my wife really need pregnancy cover travel insurance? I am unable to find the licensed travel insurance company in Uk whose insurance will work in all the European countries and which covers pregnancy.
(Just want to know if we don’t need pregnancy cover at all and a normal travel insurance is sufficient)

OR

Just A certificate by GP (doctor) will be sufficient enough stating that she is fit to fly.

Also, what should be the format of the certificate?

Thanks
Tom

A travel insurance with an insurance coverage of upto €25-30k (you should verify this) should be enough to get the visa. Never heard of a "pregnancy specific insurance" requirement.

No one will care if she is "fit" enough to travel re: immigration (ie: travel) purposes.

Your relative can come to UK first before flying together to any Schengen state.

Reservation should be good enough but embassy might want you to book the tickets

You should check the relevant embassy's / visa agencies website for documents you will need.

Hi all,

I live in Uk.

1) Do I need to show only real flight bookings for Schengen Visa or dummy tickets are acceptable?

2) do I need to submit only flight tickets OR can I show EUROSTAR tickets?

We want to visit France by Eurostar. On google I can see only “flight bookings”.

Plz guide.

Thanks

You should be able to show Eurostar tickets too.

Go to the Eurostar website directly?
