What is the longest tourist visa for Europe?

3-year multiple-entry Schengen visa This visa gives the right to its holder to enter the Schengen Area as many times as they wish within a period of three years. However, even in this case, the visa holder is limited to remaining in the EU for no longer than 90 days within a 180-day period.

You can stay up to 90 days within a 180-day period, which people consider a “six-month” period, but your visa is still valid for only 90 days. However, if you plan to stay in Europe for 6 months or longer, you would generally need to obtain a long-stay visa or a residence permit from a specific Schengen country.

To stay longer than 90 days, you must have a visa. Apply for a visa through the embassy of the country where you will spend most of your time.
