Schengen area
Indian citizens need a Schengen visa for tourism in Denmark. You apply and pay online on the Danish ApplyVisa portal, then hand in documents and biometrics at a VFS Global centre; the Royal Danish Embassy in New Delhi decides. Denmark checks daily funds, travel plans and accommodation for the whole stay, and advises against buying a ticket before approval.
Where to apply: Fill in the application and pay the fee at applyvisa.um.dk, print and sign the cover letter, then submit documents and biometrics at a VFS Global centre in India. The Embassy of Denmark in New Delhi decides and may call you for an interview.
