I received the info on 16/06. from Mr. A. Berkhout, Attache of the NL Embassy that the application for the Schengen Visa has been fully outsourced to VFS Gobal. You can therefore no longer submit a request directly to the embassy for an appointment to submit the documents as currently stated in the file. So this calls for a correction.

My Thai girlfriend is working on a Schengen visa for a month through an office in Chiang Mai. They suddenly ask that she must have Baht 60.000 in her bank account in the unlikely event that something happens in the Netherlands, so that she can pay for it. Thought I'm responsible for that? In addition, she has a medical insurance of course for those months.

My girlfriend stayed in Belgium from November 28, 2015 to January 6, 2016. Now she had a visa until January 25, but she left earlier than the visa indicates. Is it then possible to have her come on the 14th of April? I think so because she has stamps in her passport that she left Belgium on January 6th. So she has been out of the country for 90 consecutive days.
