What is a Transit Visa?
A transit visa is a travel document that permits you to pass through another country until you reach your destination. For example, if you are traveling from South Asia (Bangladesh, India, Nepal, etc.) to the US but need to stop in the Schengen Zone to continue your flight to the US, you require a transit visa for the Schengen Area.
