Visa Requirements – Student Mode
The project “Student Mode” is the concept of visa facilitation for students-foreigners from selected third countries who are admitted to study at higher education institutions in the Czech Republic.
By being enrolled in the Student Mode, students have an opportunity to get a Visa appointment date preferentially.
It is necessary to submit all the required documents during the interview, otherwise the student will be removed from the Student Mode. Information about the required documents and about the whole application process can be found at https://www.mvcr.cz/mvcren/article/information-for-schools-and-students.aspx.
If you are enrolled in the Student Mode, do not apply for a Visa appointment by yourself – it will be done for you automatically, so please wait for the embassy to contact you.
Being on the list of the Student Mode does not guarantee a positive response to the visa application.
To be enrolled in the Student Mode, please submit your application for a PhD programme and contact either your study coordinator or the Office for Science and Research (sabina.zukalova@vse.cz).
