EU C Visa Application Refusal

Post by ClemCleminson » Thu Jul 27, 2023 11:32 am

I have applied for Schengen C Visa to work in Germany on an ad hoc basis through my own Limited Company in the UK. I will only provide services to the German company about 6 to 8 weeks per year. I completed all the process but today it was refused as the Federal Employment Agency stated that the forms were incorrectly filled out or information missing. Prior to this leaving the German embassy in the UK i was asked for clarification on some matters and they were added to the form send by the German company.
They do not state what was missing or what was incorrectly completed. How do I take this forward as there does not appear to be anyone to contact to pinpoint the issue.
The process is quite tedious but I am trying my best to do the correct thing.
I would be grateful if anyone has any advice.

Do you have an official link to what gave you the idea that you could provide professional services on C visa?

"Please note that you may not pursue any economic activity in Germany unless such activity is explicitly authorised by a visa or a residence permit issued in Germany."

I am pretty sure you need a D visa:

I am not a regulated immigration advisor. I am offering an opinion and not advice.
