- rauljordan2020 4y agoI'm from Honduras and don't need a Schengen visa. Many other poor countries can also get in without one
- narag 4y agoProbably the reason is more political and cultural than economic. FWIW, the origin of "third world" is political, being the NATO and the Warsaw Pact countries the first and second. The poverty implication came later. Is a visa needed to enter Spain from any Spanish-speaking country? (Spain is in Schengen)
- cromulent 4y agoYeah, Finland and Switzerland are 3rd world countries, in the Schengen, but not developing countries.

- scottyah 4y agoIceland is expensive, it would be very unkind to let someone live there for an extended time yet not be able to enjoy a good quality of life.
- ecedeno 4y agoThey already have an income requirement. How does this contribute to better enjoying a good quality of life?
- Aachen 4y agoAlso discussed in this subthread https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35344437 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35344437. My take (having been there two weeks and done all the tours and seen all the things) is that you'd need (less than?) half of that income requirement for a normal comfort level that I also have in my home country (currently Germany). It's not a cheap country but 7k/month as "minimum income" is not a requirement out of necessity or kindness.
- jersak 4y agoGuess I'm the exception to this rule, then. Although I don't live in my home country anymore, my third world country passport is allowed.
