There are 2 categories for applying for Schengen visa without personal presence:
- children, who are under 12 years old;
- persons, who have received Schengen visa earlier.
Personal presence is required for submitting biometric data. Children, under the age of 12, are exempt from such submission and their presence is not obligated. However, separate package of documents for children need to be collected and a questionnaire is filled out by one of the parents. The questionnaire has to be signed either one of the parents.
Persons, who have previously received a Schengen visa, have already submitted biometric data. However, this data has to be done within the last 5 years and this person is relieved of the necessity of present in person.
Please note that in some cases fingerprints are not reflected in the database and the consulate may require a re-submission of biometric data.

Foreign citizens, who are staying in the territory of Republic of Kazakhstan, can apply for a Schengen visa if they have one of the following documents:
- long-term visa (for example, C3);
- residence permit in Kazakhstan;
- temporary residence permits.
When a foreign employee has already had a work permit (WP) for the main position and the employer needs to appoint him/her to second position. It means a foreigner will work in two positions.
What will we do with work permit? Is it mandatory to obtain second work permit?
Yes, since the position of a foreign employee is indicated in the work permit and employer has to obtain second permit for the new position.
If the fact of attracting a foreigner to work without a permit by an employer is revealed, the ban on the issuance of a work permit within 12 months from the date of detection will be established by authorized party.
