Schengen does not work like that. While you are supposed to apply from the country you are a resident in, if you have valid reasons you can apply from any other country. This is also frequently necessary (eg: traveller without fixed residence).
- throw-the-towel 1y agoWell, just happening to be in a different country is not a "valid reason". Maybe for someone from the West it would be accepted, but not for the rest of us. Also, "a traveler without a fixed residence" can get a non-immigrant visa for Schengen? I'm sorry but this just is not true if you're not a Westerner.

- throw-the-towel 1y agoBeing abroad is already a huge challenge to proving you're going to leave. You're showing you don't have much tethering you to your country of origin.
