The Schengen visa encompasses several types tailored to different travel purposes and durations within the Schengen Area. The Uniform Schengen Visa (USV) comprises Type A for airport transit and Type B for transit through land or sea borders. Additionally, the Type C visa offers single, double, or multiple entries for short-term stays, catering to various intents such as tourism, business, or family visits. Moreover, National Visas (NV) are available for long-term stays, such as study, work, or family reunification, while Limited Territorial Validity Visas (LTV) are issued exceptionally when Schengen states hold jurisdiction over specific territories. Each visa type serves distinct travel needs and durations, ensuring flexibility for travelers across the Schengen Area.
