Same schengen visa for return to different schengen country?
I am a F1 student studying in USA. I am planning to visit my home country via Rome. I'll be staying in Rome for a week, so I will be applying for schengen visa for Italy.
When returning back to USA from India after 15 days, I am planning to stay in Amsterdam for 3-4 days.
My question is, do I need to take another schengen visa for Netherlands, as my port of return flight entry will be Amsterdam or will my schengen visa for Italy work?
Best Answer
You will need to apply for a single Schengen visa for 2 or multiple entries, covering the entire trip USA-Italy-India-Netherlands-USA.
Since Italy is your main destination (in this case, the Schengen country you will be staying the most days in), you must apply to the Italian consulate, but with itinerary and other documentation that covers your entire trip. The visa they issue should be valid for both parts of the trip.

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 I leaving Schengen area and returning?
Once you leave, you cannot return to Spain (or Schengen) without a visa until a further 90 days have gone by. For example, if you have spent 90 days in total in Spain and leave on June 29th, you cannot go back without a visa until at least September 28th.How does multiple-entry Schengen visa work?
A multiple-entry Schengen visa permits its holder to go in and out of the Schengen Area as many times as he or she wants, as soon as they do not violate the 90/180 rule. Which means they do not remain in the Schengen zone longer than 90 days, within 180 days.What is double entry Schengen visa?
A double-entry visa (\u201c2\u201d on the visa sticker): allows its holder to enter the Schengen area twice during the validity period of the visa. You can thus leave the Schengen area and re-enter it during that period of time. The second time you leave the area, your visa expires.Overstaying in the Schengen Zone - How to Extend Your Stay in Europe UPDATED
