European Commission announces new rules allowing Indian nationals to apply for multiple-entry Schengen visas with longer validity. This change offers easier access to visas for travellers with a history of lawful travel. The new "cascade" regime grants two-year visas to those who have previously obtained and used two visas within three years. The move aims to ease travel for Indian nationals after difficulties faced last summer. The initiative provides a more favorable arrangement than standard Visa Code rules, facilitating smoother journeys to European destinations for Indian travelers.
