Using Greece-issued multiple entry tourist Schengen Visa for conference in Czech Republic
last month I visited Greece for tourism, for which I have a multiple entry Schengen tourist visa.
Next month I have a conference coming up in Prague. Could I use the same visa to enter Czech Republic and attend the conference?
Thank you!

Both Greece and Czech Republic are members of the Schengen Area. Schengen membership implies freedom of travel within the Area for those holding a valid visa for one of the member countries.
Since yours is multiple-entry, and you have already used it to enter the issuing country, you should be perfectly fine to enter Czech Republic, as long as your visa is still valid on the dates of your travel, and you have not exceeded the allowed number of days for your stay (the maximum is 90 days, but yours may vary).

Can I travel to other Schengen countries with multiple entry visa?
Schengen visas allow to make one-entry, two-entries or multi-entries. With one-entry visa you can travel the Schengen area only once. It is indicated in your visa as \u201c01\u201d. With two-entries or multi-entries you can respectively travel to the Schengen area twice or several times during the visa validity period.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.Does Greece give multiple entry visa?
A multiple-entry Schengen visa for Greece will allow the holder to spend a total of 90 consecutive days with each entry. There are different multiple entry Schengen visa types, which may be issued for the following periods of validity: 1-year multiple-entry visa. 3-year multiple-entry visa.Can I transit through 2 Schengen countries?
Traveling to a Schengen State via another Schengen State airport is not considered an airport transit neither is travelling to a non-Schengen country via two Schengen state airports. All flights between two or more Schengen States are considered to be \xabdomestic\xbb flights.Got my 6month multi entry visa in 4days ( Greece embassy in Uk 🇬🇧)
