A trip to the Netherlands is a Schengen short-stay application, so one authorisation covers the wider Schengen Area — but only if you lodge it with the right consulate, through the right operator. the Netherlands applications in the UAE are handled by VFS Global, and you apply here when the Netherlands is where you will spend the most nights.
Emirati nationals travel to the Schengen Area visa-free for short stays. Most other UAE residents apply for a short-stay (Type C) visa, and the requirements are essentially uniform across member states.
Dutch applications in the UAE are handled by VFS Global alongside several other Schengen members. Apply to the Netherlands when it is your main destination by nights spent; if another Schengen country accounts for more of your stay, the application belongs with that country instead.
Apply to the Netherlands if it is where you will spend the most nights. If your nights are split evenly across several Schengen countries, apply to whichever one you enter first. Choosing a consulate because its appointments are easier to get is a common cause of avoidable problems.
the Netherlands charges the standard Schengen consulate fee: €90 for adults and €45 for children aged 6 to 11, effective 11 June 2024; under-sixes are free. VFS Global adds its own service charge on top, set separately — confirm the current figure when you book your appointment.
The category you apply under depends on why you are travelling. Each page explains what we prepare for that route.

A previous refusal — for Netherlands or elsewhere — doesn't rule out reapplying. We review the refusal letter, identify the gap, and rebuild your file to address it directly. No service can guarantee the outcome, but a stronger file is always worth preparing.
