Italy: visa decisions in Myanmar
| Year | Applications | Visas issued | Refused | Refusal rate | Multiple-entry share |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 1,623 | 1,248 | 375 | 23.1% | 37.7% |
| 2024 | 1,392 | 1,041 | 351 | 25.2% | 47.3% |
| 2025 | 1,561 | 1,388 | 173 | 11.1% | 34.9% |
In 2025, Italy’s embassy and consulates in Myanmar (Yangon) received 1,561 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 1,388. The refusal rate was 11.1%. The refusal rate fell by 14.1 points from 25.2% in 2024, a clear improvement for applicants. Applications rose by 12% compared with 2024 (1,392).
For comparison, all Schengen states together refused 17.1% of the applications lodged in Myanmar that year, from 8.1% at the consulates of France to 24.3% at those of the Netherlands. Italy’s consulates worldwide refused 10.8%. Italy was the 4th most applied-for Schengen state in Myanmar.
You apply to the Schengen state that is your main destination (the longest stay or the main purpose; the state of first entry only when there is none), so a lower rate elsewhere is no reason to apply there. The figures cover applications lodged in Myanmar, by any nationality: mostly citizens, but also residents from other countries.
