Applying for a Schengen visa from Russia felt overwhelming at first. Being able to switch between English and the local language fields was useful for my family's details. The VFS staff commented that my file was well-organised. It's not flashy โ it just works, which is exactly what I wanted. I liked that I didn't have to create ten accounts across random sites to get this done. I'll definitely come back the next time I apply. Only downside was I had to refresh once, but nothing lost.
