So I (Estonian citizen) and my girlfriend (Indonesian) are living in Indonesia and planning to get married. We would like to get married in Estonia and then return to Indonesia.
As I would imagine the biggest issue with this kind of application will be to prove that she will return to her country. What if she has weak ties to her country (on paper), job in small company, no property to her name, comes from poor family etc. I will of course make the invitation and sponsor her trip.
What is the proper procedure to apply for a Schengen visa for such purpose?
