Is there a specific minimum amount of money I must have per day of my stay?
Yes — most Schengen countries require travelers to show they have a minimum amount of money per day to cover accommodation, meals, and basic expenses during their stay. However, the exact amount depends on the country you’re visiting. Here’s a general guideline 👇 💶 Average requirement: Most embassies expect travelers to show between €50 to €120 per day of stay, depending on your destination and type of accommodation. For example: • France: around €65 per day (with hotel booking) • Spain: around €113 per day • Germany: around €45–€60 per day • Italy: around €50–€100 per day depending on trip length 📄 How to prove it: • Recent bank statements (3–6 months)Credit card limit proof or bank balance certificateSponsorship letter (if someone else is funding your trip) 💡 Tip from Outbound Singapore: Our visa team will calculate your minimum balance requirement based on your trip dates and destination — so your proof of funds always meets embassy expectations and avoids underfunding issues.
