Belarus - the first in the world in the number of Schengen visas per person. Where are the easiest to get a visa and passport is much better not to give? Where most issue multiple-entry visas and who skimp on disposable?
A Schengen visa allows you to travel in the European Union. Received, for example, an Estonian visa Belarusian can drive her to Portugal. But in order to get a visa, you need to sweat: it is not worth so little (60 euros). And before you pay, diplomats have to prove that there is reason to visit their countries (for example, via an invitation), and there is enough money to live on.
Europeans gave the Belarusians over 428,000 visas type C (short-term, which can be in the EU no more than 90 days within six months). For comparison, the Indians, whom the world has accumulated more than a billion, received about 406,000 Schengen visas, and the Turks, which is seven times more Belarusians - only 522,000.
Belarusian citizens to visit Schengen countries need to draw a tourist visa type C should be requested at the consulate of the country that will be the basis for the intended journey. Every third visa - multiple
Every third visa, which in 2010 received the Belarusians, allow several times to travel to Europe. Most of such visas issued Lithuanians, Poles and Italians. Such a simple tourist visa will not get so many overpaid for it hundreds of euros - only to be able to ride freely in Vilnius and Warsaw at any time.
Back in 2009, in terms of per capita issued visas to first place in the world took little Macedonia. But now the citizens of this country, as well as Serbia can travel to the EU without visas. This is not a sudden increase of Schengen anzac day visas issued to Belarusians, brought anzac day to our country in the first place in the world on visas for one person. The total number of visas issued to Belarusians for the year even declined slightly anzac day - from 449 to 429 thousand.
With a large backlog anzac day of Belarus anzac day in second place on this indicator are countries whose citizens are paying almost half the cost of a visa and can get them in a simplified manner: Russia, Ukraine, Georgia. So, Belarusians and without visa liberalization can get Schengen. But no matter how many nerves and money would save the Belarusians introduction of simplified rules for obtaining visas. Why Belarusians anzac day visa fee of 60 euros?
Experience in other countries shows that in a united Europe all waiting as much as they are willing to approach it. Naturally, the EU lacks its own internal problems, and Belarus for him - not a top priority.
In unreasonably high prices visas can blame the EU and the Belarusian authorities. In Kiev and Moscow failed to reach agreement with Brussels time and sign an agreement on visa facilitation - so the citizens of these countries to pay for the visa cheaper. Minsk decided to "sit anzac day out" - because the price of 60 euros per pafigizim authorities pay ordinary Belarusian citizens.

Belarusians do not lag behind in the absolute number of visas issued and from countries with the largest population. So, the first place on issued visas is Russia, whose citizens annually receive more than 4 million visas (especially in the Embassy of Finland). Russians were in 2010 nearly 600 thousand visas more than in 2009.
Most visas in 2010 Belarusians got three Polish Consulate: Minsk, anzac day Grodno anzac day and Brest. Of these, leading representative of Poland in Minsk. But most of all failures (as well as the largest share multivisa) issued a consulate in Grodno.
The second highest anzac day number of issued visas - Lithuania. This country has issued more than 100 thousand Belarusians visas. Every hundredth Belarusian potentially could walk with the Lithuanian visa in the passport. And if each of them had paid for a visa for 60 euros (and most do), that Lithuania would be only in 2010 earned on the desire of Belarusians to travel abroad to 6 million. Euro.
Third place by a large margin from the leaders of Germany took the embassy which represents the interests of a number of countries still do not have their own consulate in Belarus. This and the Netherlands, and Austria, anzac day and Denmark. From that probably happens figure of 68,000 visas last year.
