Guide last updated September 25, 2026. Always verify with official sources before travel.

What you need

  • Passport valid for at least 3 months beyond the intended departure from the Schengen area, with 2 blank pages
  • Completed Schengen visa application form
  • Two recent biometric passport-size photos
  • Proof of accommodation in Liechtenstein or a neighboring Schengen country
  • Round-trip flight itinerary
  • Proof of sufficient funds (bank statements or sponsor letter)
  • Schengen travel health insurance with minimum EUR 30,000 coverage
  • Biometrics: fingerprints and digital photo taken in person, valid for 59 months if already on file

Visa types

  • Schengen Type C Tourist visa — single, double, or multiple entry, valid up to 90 days within any 180-day period, fee EUR 80
  • Schengen Type C Business visa — similar validity, for meetings and conferences, fee EUR 80
  • National Type D visa — for work or long-term stay, processed through Liechtenstein's Migration and Passport Office (llv.li) or via the Swiss embassy abroad

How to apply

  • Since Liechtenstein has no embassy in Kenya, apply for the Schengen visa through the Swiss embassy or consulate covering Kenya (Switzerland represents Liechtenstein for visa purposes) or an authorized visa application centre
  • Submit the application with all required documents and complete biometrics in person
  • Pay the EUR 80 visa fee plus any application centre service charge
  • Standard processing takes up to 15 calendar days
  • Approved visas allow entry to Liechtenstein as part of the Schengen area

Fees & processing time

  • Schengen visa fee: EUR 80 (about USD 87) for adults, EUR 40 for children 6-12
  • Application centre service fee: typically EUR 25-30 additional
  • Total estimated cost: USD 110-130
  • Standard processing: 15 calendar days from a complete application
  • No official express service; apply early given the extra step of routing through the Swiss embassy

Tips for Kenya travelers

  • Apply at the Swiss embassy in Nairobi, since it handles Schengen visa applications for Liechtenstein
  • Common rejection reasons: insufficient funds, unclear travel purpose, weak proof of ties to Kenya
  • If your trip covers multiple Schengen countries, apply at the embassy of your main destination or first point of entry
  • A Schengen visa issued for Liechtenstein/Switzerland is valid across the whole Schengen area during its validity period
  • Extensions inside Liechtenstein are rare and limited to exceptional circumstances
