How it works
Each branch uses the linked government checklist. Required, conditional and supporting items are labelled separately. Residence and application location can change which checklist applies. The Schengen branch is specifically for Netherlands tourism applications in China; Japan covers ordinary single-entry tourism.
Tick boxes to track preparation, then explicitly save progress on this device, download a text copy or print. Changing the filters resets the current ticks. Saved progress stays in this browser until cleared; no documents are stored or submitted.
Fees are dated reference amounts, not all-in quotes. Edit the amount for your category; currencies are not converted. Japan’s amount is a general yen equivalent, paid in local currency. Fee displays round to two decimal places; item counts are exact. Processing estimates are not appointment availability or promises of a decision.

The UK asks applicants to demonstrate a genuine visit and adequate funds, rather than meet an agency’s invented bank-balance threshold. Supporting evidence should match the application. A sponsor’s support needs its own explanation and evidence. The standard fee reference is for a short visit; longer-validity applications have different charges.
