Woman Claims Her Schengen Visa Got Approved After She Shared Copy Of Taylor Swift Concert Ticket

A woman from the Philippines whose Schengen visa application was first denied later received the visa after convincing authorities that she would depart the Schengen region to catch Taylor Swift's March concert in Singapore.

Who was the woman who got the Schengen visa because of her Taylor Swift concert ticket?

The unidentified woman described the experience on Reddit, saying, "I just wanna share that I got denied in my first attempt. They said they don't anticipate I'll exit the Schengen area before my visa expires. So when I reapplied, I stated that I would be leaving to see Taylor Swift's concert in Singapore and attached the mail confirmation."

When did she receive her visa?

She later provided an update in which she stated that she received an email stating that her visa had been approved in just three business days after mentioning the Taylor Swift performance.

"On December 21, I filed (the application). The processing days are December 22, 27, and 28. I was summoned to the embassy on January 4th in order to sign a document. I mistook it for a letter of denial. However, it was a letter instructing me to return to the embassy 10 days after my visa expired. Mother Taylor worked her magic!" she exclaimed.

As a matter of fact, her visa was approved for not just a week but 25 days.

How did the internet react?

A screenshot of the Reddit post that was shared on X has gone viral. More than 23,000 people liked the post. "This is amazing," one X user said, while another wrote, "We were working and living in India and gave all reasons yet got rejected twice."

Another added, "In the case of my wife, we said she will go back to India because she wants to come back to Germany later, long-term. The long-term visa can only be applied for from India. It worked."

The following X post talking about the original post on Reddit also went viral:
