🇱🇮 Liechtenstein Visa Procedures
All travels to Liechtenstein are subject to visa procedures carried out under Schengen rules. Since Liechtenstein is part of the Schengen area, Turkish citizens who wish to travel for touristic, business, or family visit purposes for short stays (up to 90 days) are required to obtain a Schengen Visa. As there is no visa on arrival, applications must be made from Turkey. Marsel Visa manages every step of the application on your behalf and ensures the process is completed securely and without errors.
📌 Who Needs a Liechtenstein Visa?
Among Turkish citizens, holders of Ordinary (maroon) passports must obtain a Schengen Visa to travel to Liechtenstein. Holders of Special (green), Service (grey), and Diplomatic (black) passports are exempt from visa requirements for visits not exceeding 90 days within one year.
📝 Where and How to Apply for a Liechtenstein Visa?
Visa procedures for Liechtenstein are carried out through Swiss representations. In Turkey, short-term Schengen Visa applications for Liechtenstein are handled by the Swiss Consulate in Istanbul. Applications must be submitted through authorized visa service providers designated by the consulate.
As part of Schengen requirements, applicants must provide biometric data and fingerprints. Those who have already provided fingerprints within the last five years for a Schengen application are not required to repeat the process. However, first-time applicants must visit the consulate to give their biometric data.
