If your app uses SQL Server how is it going to run without the client having access to a SQL Server somewhere on their network? You'll probably want to use one of the cut-down versions of SQL Server that don't rely on server installation.

Sql Server is required if you use files of this database. You can install in the cliente the "sql server express" version if you want.
The visual studio is not required in the client.
