End-to-end Schengen and D-type visas; what is the worst that could happen if I don't re-enter the country? [closed] - Things I Can't Say Out Load Book on Green Textile

I have a Schengen visa which ends on the 15th and my D-type visa starts on the 16th, for Germany. Given the current situation of the pandemic, I don't want to go to my home country and come back.

I've asked various officials whether I need to go out of the country and come back; border police said I need to, foreign office (where I'm applying for a residence permit) said I don't need to, so I'm a bit confused.

What could worse happen if I don't exit and re-enter the country and later they say I needed to?



Best Answer

Since D-Visas, that are issued to take up a residence, are authorized by the Foreigners Authority (Ausländerbehörde), they will know best what type of visa they have issued and how it can be used.

The Schengen Borders Code does require that somebody leaves and reenter the Schengen Area so that the compliance with the 90/180 days rule can be checked.

A National D-Visa can be issued to override this rule

  • AVwV AufenthG, Ziff. 6.1.8.2 (after a National Visa ends)
  • AVwV AufenthG, Ziff. 6.1.8.3 (before a National Visa starts)

You should check your D-Visa Remarks field to see if it (also) contains:

  • § 7 Absatz 1 Satz 3 AufenthG

If yes, then it is a clear cut case. The fact that the D-Visa starts the day after the C-Visa expires is also a sign that it was issued with this situation in mind.

(b) Rechtmäßiger Aufenthalt in Deutschland
Sowohl bei „Negativstaatern“ (Staatsangehörige der Drittländer, die in Anhang I der Verordnung (EG) Nummer 539/2001 des Rates zur Aufstellung der Liste der Drittländer, deren Staatsangehörige beim Überschreiten der Außengrenzen im Besitz eines Visums sein müssen) als auch bei „Positivstaatern“ (Staatsangehörigen der Drittländer, die in Anhang II der o. a. Verordnung aufgeführt sind) ist es grundsätzlich bei einem kurzfristigen Aufenthalt, der an einen Aufenthalt in Deutschland nach nationalem Recht anschließt (z.B. als Student), notwendig, dass erst eine Ausreise aus dem Schengen-Gebiet und eine anschließende Wiedereinreise erfolgt, damit die erforderlichen Einreisevoraussetzungen nach Art. 6 Abs. 1 Schengener Grenzkodex überprüft werden können.

(b) Legal residence in Germany
Both in the case of "negative states" (nationals of third countries listed in Annex I of Regulation (EC) No. 539/2001 of the Council establishing the list of third countries whose nationals are in possession of a visa when crossing the external borders must) as well as in the case of "positive states" (nationals of third countries listed in Appendix II of the above regulation), it is generally necessary for a short-term stay that follows a stay in Germany according to national law (e.g. as a student) that an exit from the Schengen area and a subsequent re-entry take place so that the necessary entry requirements according to Art. 6 Para. 1 of the Schengen Borders Code can be checked.

Eine Ausnahme bildet die Erteilung einer für drei Monate gültigen Aufenthaltserlaubnis durch die Ausländerbehörde nach § 7 Absatz 1 Satz 3 AufenthG bei Vorliegen bestimmter Voraussetzungen. Hintergrund ist, dass man Ausländern den Aufwand einer aus rein formalen Gründen vorzunehmenden Aus- und Wiedereinreise ersparen möchte.

Zur weiteren Erläuterung siehe : AVwV AufenthG, Ziff. 6.1.8.2 und 6.1.8.3

An exception is the issuance of a residence permit valid for three months by the immigration authorities in accordance with Section 7 (1) sentence 3 of the Residence Act if certain requirements are met. The background to this is that one would like to save foreigners the effort of leaving and re-entering the country for purely formal reasons.

Answer 2

The accepted answer is incorrect. It says

The Schengen Borders Code does require that somebody leaves and reenter the Schengen Area so that the compliance with the 90/180 days rule can be checked.

In fact, the Schengen Borders Code says nothing of the kind. It says that passport stamps must be checked when people enter and exit the Schengen area, and it says that those entering for a short stay must have their stamps checked for compliance with the 90/180 rule. It does not directly address the question of switching between a short stay and a D visa.
