Title: Questins regarding multiple entry
Post by: Kamiwami on February 22, 2011, 01:19:51 pm
Hello,

I will be traveling to Germany, and then Greece and then Belgium. The trip is a mixture of business and tour, so based on the suggestions we are going to apply for multiple entry visa for 90 days.
My question is: With a multiple entry visa, how long am I allowed to stay for each visit? Is there a limitation? If plans change, can I stay all 90 days in a row and then leave?

Second question, we might also visit other countries with friends that are not planned yet. Like Netherlands. Do I need to state anything regarding that at the visa application? Will mentioning only Germany (the entry point) make things easier?

Your information and help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks, K

The 80/190 Schengen rule means that you can travel in the Schengen area up to 90 days in any half year period. So, yes, you can stay all the 90 days in a row. Visiting Germany, Greece, Belgium during one trip counts as one entry. All these countries are in the Schengen area, so if you travel between them only through other Schengen countries, you remain in the Schengen zone, and it is still one entry into the Schengen zone.
