  • I would think they will accept your round the world ticket same as a simple roundtrip ticket as proof of departure from the Schengen area, but they might want to see the Canada visa issued first since it seems to represent the majority of your travel time.

  • It's a great itinerary as long as it is fleshed out with the accommodation arrangements. I hope your bank statements are free from irregularities. Your peripatetic experience makes getting a schengen a lot easier. I can't see any problems, but if you have a very specific question at the application stage, this is the right place to ask.

  • Thanks Tom and Gayot Tom suggested I get a Canada visa first but the approval time takes longer bec. tourists are required to take medical tests (not sure of this though) than the approval for a Schengen visa. My question is: w Commented Feb 27, 2016 at 6:12
  • What is the usual validity date for a tourist visa to Canada? What about the Schengen visa? I worry that my Canada visa will expire before I get a Schengen visa. Please,I need clarification regarding this matter. Commented Feb 27, 2016 at 6:17
  • A typical Canada tourist visa has a validity period of up to 10 years, and allows multiple entries for up to six months each entry. Schengen visas generally have a much shorter validity period. If it is your first Schengen visa, it might be issued for exactly the dates on your proposed itinerary. Your Canada visa is quite unlikely to expire before you get your Schengen visa.
