Adult applicants for short-term visas will pay €90, up from €80, a 12.5% increase.

Applications for children aged 6 to under 12 will cost €45, instead of €40.

Citizens of non-cooperation countries and those entering the country irregularly will be charged a €135 or €180 visa fee.

The increase is intended to counteract rising member state staff pay and inflation.

The most recent revision was done in February 2020.
