Am I allowed to enter Poland on French-issued multiple-entry Schengen visa? [duplicate]

I am an Indian national and a frequent traveler. I have been issued a Schengen multiple entry visa twice from the French Embassy in Central Africa. I have been to France three times and two times to Poland on same visa. Now I am in India and would like to fly directly to Poland on the same valid visa. I would like to know are there any issues entering Poland first instead of France?

Best Answer

It should be perfectly fine as you have a multiple-entry visa, which you can show to have used regularly without breaking the rules.

Can I travel to other Schengen countries with multiple-entry visa?

Schengen visas allow to make one-entry, two-entries or multi-entries. With one-entry visa you can travel the Schengen area only once. It is indicated in your visa as \u201c01\u201d. With two-entries or multi-entries you can respectively travel to the Schengen area twice or several times during the visa validity period.

Do I have to enter the country that issued my Schengen visa?

Can I enter Poland with Schengen visa?

Can I have 2 Schengen visas at the same time?

In theory, it is not possible for a person to hold two valid short stay visas covering the same period. I have a valid Schengen visa but it does not cover my next intended stay, what can I do? In this case, it is possible to file a visa application for another Schengen visa to cover the next intended stay entirely.
