Matters needing attention
1. According to the current regulations of European embassies, some or all guests leaving the group will be randomly selected for trial sale after returning home. The embassy will inform the team after departure, and the guests who have been spot-checked must come to the embassy in person according to the time notified by the embassy. Guests are advised to book return air tickets in the afternoon or the next day; If the day of arrival is Friday, Saturday or Sunday, please book the next flight on Monday afternoon or evening to avoid the embassy informing the interview and delaying the flight (the embassy will be closed on Friday afternoon).
2. Some embassies usually wait for guests to return home for a few days before informing them of the interview and cancellation. This situation is hard to understand, but it is the practice of the embassy at present. And all the interview expenses are borne by the guests themselves. Please be prepared to be informed that the interview will be cancelled.
All the guests with French visas will be interviewed in the embassy office of Terminal 3 of Capital International Airport and their visas will be cancelled on the day of their return to Beijing. Due to the large number of people signing out every day, it may take a long time. Please cooperate.
Please note that the bar code on the back of your passport is closely related to your entry and exit from Schengen Customs and your return to China. Please don't tear it off without authorization, so as not to bring you unnecessary trouble.
It is stipulated by the European Embassy that all guests who apply for group visas in travel agencies must return their passports and boarding passes to the Embassy for cancellation. When you arrive at the Capital International Airport on the day of returning home, the tour guide or tour leader will pick it up from you and give it to the embassy. The time of passport cancellation depends on the work progress of each embassy. Due to the tourist season or large-scale activities, the workload of the embassy is very heavy, and the passport cancellation time will be longer. Please understand and be prepared. The deposit can only be refunded to the guests who have been cancelled by the embassy interview. Please forgive the inconvenience.
