Can I take a flight that departs after midnight of the day my Schengen visa expires?
I have short term german visa for three days.
I don't have a flight in my budget on the 3rd day night so I want to know if I can finish my immigration on the 3rd day night and take up the flight next day morning.
Do the airline companies and immigration allow such things.
Best Answer
You have to officially depart Germany before midnight on the day your visa expires. After you cross the line at passport control you are no longer "in" Germany as far as immigration is concerned.
However, unless your departure flight is shortly after midnight you won't get past security. The cutoff time is dependent on the airport but "8am the next day" will definitely be out of the question.
You need to either get a flight before your visa expires or talk to immigration about it. Preferably well before midnight on day 3.

No. A long stay visa or a residence permit issued by a Schengen State allows you to travel or stay in other Schengen States, while respecting the maximum duration of a \u201cshort stay\u201d (a stay of "90 days in any 180 day period").What happens if my Schengen visa expires?

If you overstay the end date of your authorized stay, as provided by the CBP officer at a port-of-entry, or United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), your visa will generally be automatically be voided or cancelled, as explained above.Can I travel with my visa almost expired?
A visa must be valid at the time a traveler seeks admission to the United States, but the expiration date of the visa (validity period/length of time the visa can be used) has no relation to the length of time a temporary visitor may be authorized by the Department of Homeland Security to remain in the United States.REASONS WHY SCHENGEN VISA APPLICATIONS GET REJECTED (Highly requested)
