      Well see below

      Schengen Short-Term Business visit – Business Visitor status may in some cases be appropriate for visits to install or repair machinery, computer software or equipment, or to perform other technical duties at either an affiliated company or a client site.

        Agreed those short visits to install anything should be possible on a simple business visa.
        I'm alright Jack

          My Business visa to Saudi stated that I was not allowed to work.

          I was providing a consulting service and not digging a hole or a driving a taxi so I guess I was not working but on Business.

            We are contractors and run our own business so we are "Business men/women" we are not workers so we dont need a work visa we need Business Visas!

                The end client filled out the form and sent it to their London agent. I sent my passport to the London agent they went to the Saudi embassy. I got my British passport back with the visa containing a page of Arabic writing and the words " Not Permitted to Work"

                    i know i have posted a thread concerning something similar to this - (for those of you who recognize my user name ) .

                    My question is this, i have a contract in the Uk which requires me to also travel to Germany and Portugal . I am non-EU ,and currently on a Work permit in the UK. Has anyone in the room applied for a schengen Business Visa? if yes - what are the documents i need from my client. (Being a limited company do i need any special document? )

                    Your replies will be helpful

                    P.S
                    i have check the schengen site already - i am just looking to see if anyone has done this in the past .

                    Firstly, there is no work permit concept, you must be here on a Tier 1 visa.

                    Secondly, on a Tier 1 visa you cannot work in EU countries. There is a restriction on your visa.

                    Imagine if it was possible, thousands of them would hop in to UK on Tier 1 etc and then just swim across to Swiss or Germany or wherever there was more cash available. It would just be a back door.
