Travel Itinerary Change: Should I notify the consulate?
I have received a multiple-entry Schengen visa from the Spanish consulate in Mumbai for a meeting that was originally scheduled for the 9th of January, but now has been moved to the 23rd of January. The visa has a validity of 45 days, so it will be valid for my entire stay.
Since I've had to both re-book my flight tickets and change my hotel (due to availability issues), should I notify the consulate about these changes? I've heard of people getting their visas annulled or revoked due to similar things, hence my apprehension. Is there any chances that sending the consulate the new itinerary might lead to any issues with future applications or at passport control?
Best Answer
I received the following response from the visa section of the Spanish consulate in Mumbai.
Good morning,
Kindly note as you have been granted a multiple entry visa valid until XX-XX-2020, you may travel as many times on any given days during the validity of the visa. You need not send any notification to the Consulate. However, kindly note permission to enter or denying entry into the territory is the decision of the immigration authorities.

Since this matches the information in @o.m.'s answer, I am accepting it.

Can I change my itinerary after getting Schengen visa?
"can i change my itinerary within the schengen area ?" You should follow the itinerary you gave when you applied for the visa. You cannot change your itinerary so completely that the information you gave in the visa application is no longer true.Can I travel after change of status?
If the application for a Change of Status is approved, it only changes your status in the U.S. This means that if you travel outside the U.S. during your program of study and wish to re-enter in F-1 student status, you would still need to apply for the F-1 entry visa at a U.S. embassy or consulate.Is travel itinerary required for US visa?

You can reschedule your appointment (for a future date only) and up to a maximum of two times.
