To obtain a Schengen visa, you must apply in the embassy of the relevant country. For example if your purpose of visit consists mainly for travel to Germany, you should apply in German Embassy and not in any other Schengen member country’s embassy. If you are planning to visit more than one Schengen country, it is a good practice to apply for a visa in the embassy of first point of entry. For example, if your travel plan consists of Pakistan to Norway then Netherlands and then Switzerland, it is much better to apply in Norwegian Embassy.
