Which Schengen country will give a visa for 5 years?
I have a history of 4 Schengen visas: France in 2008 (2 months), Spain in 2010 (half a year), Italy in 2011 (2 weeks - they gave clearly on the dates of the trip), France in 2012 (1 year ).
I have vague doubts that, like last year, in September-October they will forcibly send me on vacation. Which consulate is better to go to for a visa for 5 years? If you have a similar experience, please share.

Yes, no one will give now for 5 years! Moreover, visas for the last 3 years only matter. It is advisable to go to the French again. The Italians are still loyal, but it is unlikely that you will get a longer annual one anywhere, in the best scenario - a two-year plan.
You can also try Czechs or Slovenes, the latter at one time handed out long visas, but not for long (not to be confused with Slovaks). In addition, now is the year of Poland in Russia, perhaps they will be loyal.

I agree - only visas for the last one matter. 3 years. So apart from France you have nothing. For 5 years in such scenarios and before, no one would have given. The French can give again a year, in a good scenario, a maximum of 3.

Multi 5 years? In Ukraine, such visas for any country are obtained only for a specified round sum and only through special agencies, and only without a guarantee.

My relative last year received an Estonian Schengen for 5 years, but his wife and children have dual Russian-Estonian citizenship, father-in-law is an Estonian citizen, they go there 2-3 times a year for many, many years. I submitted the documents personally to the Estonian consulate in Moscow, I did not pay any round sums to anyone.
According to the manager of Teztur, Spaniards and Italians have been very generous in terms of the terms of the Schengen visa lately.

agent_borabora, but ollenka not from Ukraine, but from Barnaul, in Russia. It is unlikely that she is interested in what and how we have with you on visas) But the fact that 5-year-olds are only for bubulesiki is also not true. At least in 13, crowds of people received 5 years for tourism from the Slovaks, including me and almost all of my friends) This is not the only option. On the guarantee of foreign representative offices of companies that work here, many employees, partners and associates just as easily receive 5-year visas. The circle of such people is quite wide, of course, no one can vouch for anyone. But they won't do it for money either. So what's up...

The fact that there is no mass character and 5 years is a very individual thing, no one seems to have any doubts. Ollenk's hope is only in the French, and even then, not much ... Possile, perhaps someone could help at work. If you cooperate with normal foreign companies and their representative offices, then you can "ask for" help. But this is no longer tourism, but a business visa. Same type C

Last year, Estonians gave me a cartoon for 3 years (until the end of my passport), but I regularly travel to Estonia as if to work :) I would also advise going to the French, especially since they already gave a "long" visa.

Dear opponents, do not forget that the conditions for issuing visas have changed dramatically not just over the past six months, but over the past week.
The issuance of a visa is more likely to be affected not by the location of the consular office (Ukraine or Russia), but by the visa history and registration.
So all cases of successful obtaining of 5-year visas in the last month, year or more have sunk into oblivion.
Now no one gives guarantees, even such easy countries as Greece, Slovakia, Spain, and even more difficult France.

Well, no one can also guarantee that a visa will NOT be issued. Everything happens in life, so trying is not torture :)

agent_borabora, I'm sorry, but why is France difficult? There is nowhere to be easier.
I will add, Greece in Russia is not so generous, but everything depends on them, from which foot they get up today)
and returning nevertheless to the original question, the author should apply precisely to them. Neither the Spaniards nor the Italians will give more than a year, and most likely no one ...
And it’s not worth delaying too much, otherwise from September-October you will also have to take fingerprints)

petromir, here in Ukraine, France has never been loyal to the issuance of visas. Even with a traveled passport, they opened the same day for the dates of the trip. And in a clean one without a visa history - they didn’t even accept it.
Haven't imprints been introduced in Russia yet? We have since June 22.

Guys, thanks for all the replies and advice. I don’t know about Ukraine, but in Russia five-year visas are issued, only it is very difficult to identify patterns, under what conditions they will immediately give them for 5 years.
According to statistics, France most often slaps a visa for 5 years. There is no need to pay any money, except for the standard visa fee.
It's just that in the last six months I have had to live in Moscow, and since it happened, I want to take a moment and go to AUTO in the near abroad such as the Baltic States, Poland or Slovakia. I won’t finish up to France, but I’ll completely master it closer.

Schengen visa stamps It seems that they will take fingerprints on our passports, they have also joined some kind of international standard. This is the first time I've heard of imprints for a visa.
аватар agent_borabora
We have introduced imprints on our passports since the beginning of 2015. And they are now introducing them to Schengen: consulates do not work until June 22, they are reissuing the system.
аватар petromir
ollennka, good luck to you) I think you are not a pattern) such miracles do not happen)
And google about prints) here you can’t give links to third-party sites, unfortunately. It was planned since April 25, but the countries were not ready, they postponed it to September or October, I don’t remember the exact date.
By the way, they also take fingerprints on a Russian visa) I won’t say about all countries, in the USA such a rule applies.

In the Russian Federation, fingerprints were introduced when issuing passports from 01/01/2015. Regarding visas, I go to the websites of the consulates general and see all the changes from them.

It's not about passports.
Well, here it is, just caught again:
From September 14, tourists wishing to travel to Europe will have to obtain a Schengen visa only in specially equipped centers with equipment for datyloscopy. The procedure will be carried out exclusively at the consulates and visa centers of European countries.

And how long do Slovaks and Estonians give if, for example, you have no visa history at all?
аватар sent2008
Without a visa history, the Estonians gave it strictly for the duration of the trip, the second time they gave it for a month.
