    I'm a Nigerian, male, 24yrs old and work in a high profile Bank. I applied for Schengen tourist visa through the french embassy last week and wasn't granted one. This was after satisfying all the requirements - from hotel reservation, airline ticket ,letter from employer etc - for visa application. I havent travelled abroad since i was a kid and my passport's a relatively new one with no visa on it. This would be my first visa application. Was i rejected on this basis? Can i apply through another schengen embassy, cos all i wanna do is take leave from work n relax somewhere in europe. what about appeals? pls educate/advice me. thanks

    "A Nigerian national would like to visit Germany and has applied for a Schengen visa. He was refused without reasons and would like to appeal against the decision.
    He was informed that national rules apply in this case, and that he should independent legal advice in order to challenge the decision of the German authorities."


    You cannot appeal against a decision to turn down an application for a visa. You can however re-apply or request that the original application be reconsidered. In that case you write in and request a review of the decision. You send the letter to the body that took the original decision (the embassy, the consulate or the Migration Board).

    Remember! According to the Schengen regulations you must have a medical insurance.
