I am a Turkish citizen. I have a 45-day Greek Schengen tourist visa. Can I extend my visa for 5 days in Spain?



Best Answer

It's usually impossible to extend a Schengen visa for tourism. There are a couple of exceptions/alternatives:

  • You can request an extension of your Schengen visa if you have a very serious reason (e.g. illness or family emergency) but not merely for convenience or because you changed your plans.
  • You might be able to apply for an entirely different visa (a national visa, not a Schengen visa, e.g. a spouse visa if you are married to a Spanish citizen) but I don't know precisely what's available in Spain and that's most likely not applicable to your situation.

Can I apply for Schengen Visa twice?

Schengen visas may allow for a single-entry or multiple entries. With a single-entry visa you can enter the Schengen area only once. This is indicated on the visa sticker by "01". With a visa allowing for two or multiple entries you may enter twice or several times during the validity of the visa.

How long can you overstay your visa in Spain?

The problem is that this rule is often called the 180-day rule too (since you are allowed to stay in Spain for 3 months within a total period of 180 days), and it generates a lot of confusion with another rule with a similar name: the 183-day rule. And the truth is that they have nothing to do with each other.
