What the Denmark visa rules mean for Central African Republic travellers
Central African Republic citizens need a visa issued in advance by an embassy or consulate of Denmark. Start the application several weeks before departure: you will typically need a passport valid for six months with blank pages, a completed application form, passport photos, a travel itinerary, proof of accommodation and of sufficient funds, and sometimes an invitation letter or bank statements.
The main option is the Schengen short-stay visa, which costs 90 EUR with a processing time of —.
Documents to prepare
Whatever your visa status, Denmark applies the same entry conditions to every traveller:
- Passport validity: The Danish Immigration Service says a visa-free traveller's passport or travel document must be valid for three months past the intended date of departure from the Schengen area and must have been issued within the past…
- Blank passport pages: Your passport needs at least 2 blank pages.
- Travel insurance: The Visa Code says applicants for a uniform visa must prove they hold adequate and valid travel medical insurance (for a multiple-entry visa, covering the first intended visit); it must be valid throughout the territory…
- Return or onward ticket: No official source we could read states that a return or onward ticket is required. The UK Foreign Office tells British nationals that at Danish border control they may also need to show a return or onward ticket.
