rmedistro Posted March 26, 2023 #1 Share Posted March 26, 2023 My wife has lived in the US for 14 years, but never applied for US Citizenship. (I know 🙃)We have taken several caribbean and mexico cruises, and she just needed to bring green card/State DL/China passportShe just booked a 12 day cruise originating in London UK, ports in Sweden, Finland, Germany, Estonia, and DenmarkI am almost 99% sure I have to get her a Schengen Visa for the UK, but Carnival has no information, and conflicting information everywhere on Google.We reside in Central Florida.Help?? 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mom says Posted March 26, 2023 #2 Share Posted March 26, 2023 (edited) I'm 100% sure that the UK is not part of Schengen. So she will need a UK visa on top of the Schengen one. DO NOT trust any 3rd party sites. Contact the embassies of the countries you will be travelling to directly.

klfrodo Posted March 26, 2023 #3 Share Posted March 26, 2023 UK is no longer part of the Schengen area since Brexit came into effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Host Hattie Posted March 26, 2023 #4 Share Posted March 26, 2023 The UK never was part of the Schengen area. Information on Standard Visitor Visas and Transit visa is here if that helps https://www.gov.uk/transit-visa/visitor-in-transit-visa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like my wife will need a standard visa, as she will go through customs control, and then stay over night in hotel, then transit to Dover cruise terminal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
