Schengen Area–The World’s Largest Visa-Free Zone.
The Schengen Area is the world’s largest visa-free zone, allowing more than 400 million people to travel between member countries without border controls.
The area includes 25 of the 27 European Union (EU) member states, plus four non-EU countries that are members of the European Free Trade Association (EFTA): Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, and Switzerland. Croatia joined the Schengen Area on January 1, 2023. Ireland has opted out of the Schengen Agreement and has its own visa policy, as do some overseas territories of Schengen member states.
The Schengen Area began in 1985 as an intergovernmental project between five EU countries: France, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg. All member countries act as a single jurisdiction for visas globally, and nationals of EU single market countries can enter and reside in each other’s countries without a visa.
