How long is a visa valid for?
Visas are normally issued for the duration you specify, with a maximum of three months (90 days) per six months. The visa-issuing authority will want to see your flight ticket to check the dates on which you will be entering and leaving the country. In the “duration of stay” box on the sticker, you will find the number of days during which you may remain in the Schengen Area. In the “from” box, you will find the date on which your visa becomes valid. You may enter the Schengen Area on that date or afterwards. In the “to” box, you will find the date on which your visa expires. As soon as you enter the Schengen Area, the days in the “duration of stay” box start to count down. You must leave the Schengen Area no later than the day on which you have reached your maximum number of days or on the date stated in the “to” box. I want to enter the Netherlands more than once.

If you are entering the United Kingdom for settlement, your visa will be valid for two years initially. A student visa is valid for as long as the course for which you have an unconditional offer. So if you are planning to follow a one year foundation course and then plan to go on to take a three year bachelor degree course, your visa will be valid for that first year only. But if, say, you have an unconditional offer of a place on a three-year course, we can issue a visa that is valid for three years.
