Can an Indian enter Denmark 1 day before visa starts? - Woman posing. Wearing White Dress Shirt Sitting on Window

I have a residence permit for Sweden that starts from 1/1/19. I have an Indian passport. I'm planning to travel from Chennai to Copenhagen by flight. The flight takes off at 3.30 AM from Chennai and reaches Copenhagen on 12.20 PM on 31st. Will there be any problems with the airline (Emirates) and transit layover at Dubai? I'm travelling abroad for the first time for study. I'm willing to spend 12 hours at Copenhagen midnight and 1/1/19. What will you suggest as an experienced traveler?



Best Answer

The airline will not let you board. The airline risks a fine of several thousand euros if you approach the passport desk before midnight, so your assurance that you will wait is probably not going to be very persuasive.

You should postpone your flight. Because you will enter the Schengen area in Copenhagen, you must arrive there after midnight, that is, actually on or after the first of January, local time.

Is Denmark tourist visa open?

A visa allows you to stay a maximum of 90 days in any 180-day period in Denmark and is normally valid for the entire Schengen region. If you need to travel to Denmark and the other Schengen countries on a regular basis you can apply for a long-term visa that is valid for multiple entries.

How much time it takes to get Denmark visa?

The processing time for a Denmark Visa application may take up to 15 days. In certain situations, such as during the COVID-19 pandemic, it could be extended to a maximum of 60 days. You may submit your visa application up to six months before traveling.

Can I visit Denmark from India?

Do Indians need a visa to travel to Denmark? Yes. Denmark is a member of the European Union (EU) and the Schengen Area - meaning you will need a Denmark Visa to travel there.

Can I change my travel date after getting Schengen visa?

You cannot change your itinerary so completely that the information you gave in the visa application is no longer true. If you planned a trip lasting 10 days, and you now have 15 days "duration of stay", you can extend your trip by up to 5 days (including a visit to another country if you want).
