How can I stay more than 90/180 days in Schengen using Australia's bilateral agreements with Spain and Austria?
I wish to travel as follows (and stay within visa rules everywhere, obviously):
- Slovenia 2 days (this is where I will enter Schegen)
- Austria 10 days
- Czech Republic 3 days
- Spain 45 days
This is total of 60 days within Schengen. Then at a later time, but within 180 days, I would like to spend more than 30 days in Estonia.
According to Visa Requirements for Australian Citizens bilateral agreements are in place between Australia and both Spain and Austria.
What can I do to ensure that my time in Spain and Austria is counted under these bilateral agreements and not considered to be part of the 90 day allowance within the Schengen region when I enter Estonia?
