Immigration rules, fees and processing times change. This article is general guidance, not legal advice. Always check the latest requirements on the official Iceland government website before you apply.

If you are applying for an Iceland Schengen Visa, it’s important to know where to submit your application and how to contact the correct authorities. Iceland is a member of the Schengen Area, but it does not maintain embassies in every country. In many regions, Icelandic visa processing is handled through the embassies of Denmark or Norway, or through VFS Global Visa Application Centres.

Embassy of Iceland in London (United Kingdom)

Most Iceland visa applications from the UK and Ireland are processed through the Embassy of Iceland in London. Applicants book their appointment via VFS Global UK.
