Monaco Visa Guide for Pakistanis 2026

Monaco doesn’t issue its own separate visa — here’s exactly how Pakistani travellers can visit the Principality.

Do Pakistani Citizens Need a Separate Visa for Monaco?

No. Monaco is not a Schengen member, but under bilateral agreements with France, its territory sits within the external Schengen border, and border checks at Monaco’s crossing points are carried out by French authorities. In practice, this means a valid Schengen visa is all you need — there is no separate Monaco visa to apply for.

How it works: Apply for a standard Schengen visa (via France, since that’s the country Monaco is tied to for border purposes), and travel to Monaco as part of your Schengen trip. No separate application or fee is required for Monaco itself.
