Do I need a visa to travel Paris if I already have a UK business visa?
 

Hello Everyone,

I am from India and I will be visiting London on a business trip coming april.
I will be holding a uk business visa and I wanna travel France (as I was very obsessed with french culture and the eiffel tower).
So I am planning for a two day trip to france, will I be able to travel without french visa?
If no, then will it be easy if I apply it in UK for the same?and how long will it take to process it?

Thanks in advance.

No, you will need a Schengen Visa and will likely have to apply for this in advance of your travel to the UK.

You will have to look up the Schengen Visa process in India.

Thanks Jamikins for your reply.
Applying visa in India is most annoying thing, with respect to UK visa my company will take care.
So how long will it take to process the schengen visa, as I asked in my earlier question, can I apply the same in UK?

I have no idea, as I am not Indian, but I believe you will need to apply in your home country. My friend applied for one here in the UK and he did it 8 weeks before travel.

I did a google search and these links might help provide you with answers:
