Moscow Yes, all things I have and I do right now is all the things that I have written down on papers, during my sleeps, in my consciousness, in my visions. So let's do that again here. I have another dream that I really think of. It's the thing I want to do when I have so much money, or enough money, or when money doesn't matter anymore, or who knows! I wanna build a school for kids who can't afford to go to school. I want them to pay nothing, and I want them to learn the basic things like how to respect others, how to tell people their ideas/opinions, familiarize them with being kind, how to think logically, how to solve problems, etc. All the basic survival things in life. I think my passion is always in education, but I don't always like to follow the old-school rules. There are so many important things we don't learn at school that I think should be taught there. Once we graduate from school, we usually don't know how to navigate life. Who taught you...
I know this is so normal but anyway I like to compare the experiences because people might have different cases and because I have nothing to lose so... here's my experience for applying Schengen Visa via Swiss (VFS).
Kenapa nggak via Belanda? Karena rencana kita berkunjung lamanya ke Geneve - Swiss (ada urusan kerjaan suami gw) dan kami belum tau akan ke Belanda apa nggak saat itu (nggak jadi sih soalnya mepet banget).
Seperti yang sudah sering dibahas orang lain perihal syarat dan ketentuan apply Schengen visa, gw nggak akan nulis itu ya. Udah ada di website VFS, lengkap. Gw cuma tambahin dikit-dikit aja infonya yang mungkin sama seperti kasus yang baca kalo emang kebetulan sama sih 😂
"Ok jadi total pembayarannya 280 ribu rupiah ya"
"HAH?? Cuma 200an mbak??? Visanya gratis???"
"Suaminya masih WN Belanda kan mbak?"
"Iya"
"Oiya itu gratis, bisa pake visa tipe C. Jadi cuma bayar biaya admin aja"
"Mulai kapan mbak?"
"Udah lama mbak, emang gitu ada kelonggaran untuk yang memiliki pasangan orang Eropa"
Mbaknya nggak ngomong jenis visanya sih, gw sendiri yang cari akhirnya.
Jadi, suami gw yang WN Belanda menjadi salah satu perks gw bisa dapet gratis Schengen visa dan hanya membayar biaya administrasinya aja sebesar 200-300k rupiah aja. Ternyata hal ini sudah tertera di website VFS dengan Schengen visa type C yang menyebutkan:
You are eligible if you can prove objectively that all of the following requirements are met:
- You are a family member of an EU/EEA/Swiss national. (this includes a spouse, registered partner, child who is under 21 or a depending family member); and
- you are accompanying the EU/EEA/Swiss national or planning to join him/her; and
- this EU/EEA/Swiss national is traveling to or is residing in another member state than that of which he/she is a national.
Tapi.. TAPI TAPI... hal ini tidak berlaku jika: This procedure does not apply to family members of Dutch nationals travelling to or living in the Netherlands, unless they have recently worked/lived in another EU/EER country or Switzerland.
Geneve, Nov 2019
Jadi kalo gw pulang kampung, gw tetep harus bayar visanya. Pulang ke Belanda. Gw cerita suami gw, dia bilang "No wonder!" LOL gw nggak paham juga. Tapi ya gw seneng aja dong dapet gratis juga.
Prosesnya singkat, hari ini submit data, besok udah rilis visanya, lusanya paspor dikirim, besoknya paspor udah ditangan. Gw pake kurir bayar 150 ribu karena Bali masuk area 2. Gw dapet visanya sesuai tanggal masuk dan keluar Eropanya. Tapi, VFS Swiss cuma ada di Jakarta, di Bali nggak ada jadi mau nggak mau gw harus ke Jakarta. Tiket ke Jakarta lebih mahal daripada harga visa gw dududuu.
Yang apply via Swiss bisa dibilang nggak sebanyak Belanda. Kemarin gw sendirian aja sampai 10 menit kemudian baru ada orang kedua. Proses ambil biometriknya juga singkat sih. Masuk jam 9 kurang 10 menitan, jam 9 lebih 5 udah selesai. Appointment gw jam 9 pagi tapi karena nggak ada yang antri ya dibolehin masuk juga.
Sesingkat dan semudah itu sih.
