The Schengen Area Member States

The holder of this type of visa is not required to have the citizenship of the designated country in order to spend time with their relatives or visit the designated Schengen country. However, such an authorization has its limitations as well.

Tourists are allowed to reside in the designated country for a maximum of 3 months/90 days, unless the visa states differently. You are not allowed to work during this period unless the visa states otherwise.
