Additionally, nationals from countries that have not cooperated on the readmission of their nationals irregularly staying in the EU will face higher visa fees of either €135 or €180, depending on the Council’s decision.
This decision comes as the EU reports a 36.3 percent increase in the number of visas issued in 2023 compared to 2022. However, this figure is still down by 39 percent compared to 2019, when Schengen states received 16 million applications.
