Is it possible to hold multiple working holiday visas across multiple Schengen countries at one time? [closed]

I'm planning a trip to Europe where I plan to travel between multiple countries in Europe and the UK for upwards to a year.

Although I do not intend on "working working" per se, I am interested in WWOOFing in countries throughout the Schengen area and wondering what my best options would be in terms of coordinating visas.

I am from New Zealand (25 years old) and can travel through most countries without a visa for upwards to three months at a time (or three months total in the Schengen), however, as my plans are not solid I want the freedom to stay in Europe for longer than this timeframe if I choose.

I'm looking at getting a working holiday visa for France, Italy and Ireland as well as (potentially) a UK ancestry visa - but wondered if it was possible to hold these all at the same time or whether I needed to choose one country over the other.

Has anyone else done something similar or can offer help? Any advice appreciated!

Can you have visas from different countries at the same time?

Every country sets their own visa requirements and it's perfectly ok to have visas for different countries at the same time - in fact it's essential if a visa is an entry requirement.

Can I have 2 Schengen visas at the same time?

In theory, it is not possible for a person to hold two valid short stay visas covering the same period. I have a valid Schengen visa but it does not cover my next intended stay, what can I do? In this case, it is possible to file a visa application for another Schengen visa to cover the next intended stay entirely.

Can you transit through 2 Schengen countries?

No. Long stay visa or residence permit issued by a Schengen Agreement State allows you to travel or stay in other countries of Schengen area during the maximum period of \u201cshort stay visit\u201d (staying not more than 90 days within a period of 180 days).

Can I travel to more than one Schengen country with the same Schengen Visa?

Yes. According to the Schengen rules, the Schengen visa is generally valid for all the countries in the Schengen area.
