Applying for a Schengen visa from Ethiopia felt overwhelming at first. It caught a couple of things I had filled in wrongly and explained how to fix them. I submitted on a Tuesday and had my passport back the following Monday. My appointment was at the VFS centre and they accepted everything without comment. Everything is laid out so even my mum could follow it, and she's 68. It's not flashy โ it just works, which is exactly what I wanted. Genuinely worth every penny.
