Hi all,

 

I have a couple of questions about a tourist visa (schengen) 90 days.

 

Can my sister sponsor my wife for a visitor visa for 90 days to the netherlands?

 

And what is needed for her to sponsor my wife, documents financial stuff etc?

 

Me and my wife have a daughter together and we are married we are planning to go to the netherlands from March next year.

My daughter have both dutch and thai paspoort's so my daughter don't need a visa to travel to the netherlands bit my wife do becouse she is thai.

 

 

 

If the alien (your wife) does poses 34 euro's per day she will not need a sponsor for her short stay in the Netherlands. This can be in a bank account that she (co) owns, aslong as it's clear thst the money is hers and she can spent it herself.

 

 If that is not an option she can have a sponsor. That could be you, your sister or even Dutch 'folkssinger' Frans Bauer if you could persuade him to be a guarator. 555 All that is required is that the guarantor has sufficient and durable income. This means that the income is 'guaranteed' for atleast 365 days (show an employement contract that will last atleast 1 year at the moment of application) and atleast 100% minimum wage (about 1500+ euro's before taxes). 

 

The guarantee form can be found on IND.nl (Dutch immigration & naturalisation department) and is called 'formulier garant en/of logies verstrekking'. The guarantor will need to fill it in as per instructions and sign it at the embassy (if you do it in TH) or townhall (if the sponsor lives in NL) where a civil servant will verify it this and legalize it with a fancy stamp.

 

More info can be found both via IND.nl and the Dutch embassies website. Preparation is the key and when you do apply I personally would stay away from VFS and only deal with the embassy. Saving you both a service fee and possible even incompetence from less experienced and lesser trained paper pushing VFS staff. But that's just how I see things.
