Changing destination or visa type starts a fresh budget.
SELECTED ROUTEAdult short-stay Schengen C tourist visa
Partial fee preset
Standard adult visa fee €90. Visa-exempt travellers, fee-waived categories and nationality-specific agreements or additional fees are not automatically assessed. Pay one Schengen application fee for the relevant application, not one fee per country visited. Provider fees, insurance and travel are additional and editable.

Optional personal entry in your budget currency. A balance you must show is not automatically a payment or a refusal loss. It is excluded from all costs and loss totals. Enter any account/provider fees as expenses separately.
How the estimate works
Costs paid, expected refunds and refusal stage
Each enabled amount is converted into your budget currency and rounded to cents. Potential cash loss = amounts paid by the selected refusal stage − expected cash refunds. Payments at a later stage are excluded. Every row assumes the whole amount is paid at its selected stage; split deposits and balances into separate rows if needed.
Refunds can change with the refusal stage. For example, an Irish employment-permit refusal has a different refund rule from a later visa refusal. A source-based percentage is used where established; otherwise 0% is a cautious assumption, not a verified non-refundable rule. You can override it in the row’s assumptions.
Reusable certificates, future visa applications and insurance cover are not cash refunds. No probability of refusal, compensation, lost income or loan interest is calculated.
What a partial fee preset means
We researched one named adult route for each purpose and destination. This is not every visa category or every applicable charge. Local service fees, taxes, employer levies, nationality agreements, family members, future renewals and route-specific exemptions can change the budget. Missing charges are stated in each route’s scope and notes; an initial zero in an expense row means no quote entered.
Work, study and tourism have separate charges. Tuition and health-insurance premiums are supplier expenses. Proof-of-funds balances are shown separately. The adult Schengen tourist preset is one relevant application fee; a trip through several member states does not create one visa fee per destination.

FEES, INSURANCE & REFUND PLANNING
All budget guides ↗Czechia tourist visa budget questions
Source-linked explanations and worked examples. They help organise a budget and do not assess immigration eligibility.
Does travel insurance have a fixed visa price?
Enter your actual premium quote. A policy’s coverage limit is not the premium. Check trip dates, travellers, coverage and written refund terms with the provider and relevant authority.
Do I pay for each Schengen country visited?
The standard application fee is not added once per destination on a multi-country Schengen trip. Route pages are alternative starting points for the relevant application. Check where and whether to apply with the competent authority.
How much might I lose if my Czechia visa is refused?
Use amounts already paid by the chosen stage, less expected cash refunds. Unknown refund terms start at an editable 0% assumption. This is neither a guaranteed refund result nor a refusal probability. Read the route scope and each row’s assumptions.
