schengen visa when on Tourist Visa in UK

28th March 2006, 05:35 AM

Hi,
My parents have come from India to UK on TOURIST visa valid for 6
months. They want to travel europe, for which they need the schengen
visa. Is it possible to get the schengen visa from UK when they are
here on Tourist visa ? I called up german embassy and they said that
you can get a schengen only from the country of your residence, which
is India in this case. I am sure there are many who fall into this
category.. is it possible to get a visa from London itself ?

thanks
Mukesh
