Extending Schengen Business VISA?
Find answers to your legal question.





Extending Schengen Business VISA?

I am presently in Spain on a 90 day short stay Schengen VISA. My VISA expires in one months time and I wish to extend my stay.

Is there any way that I can get an extension. Please also explain which place I should contact to get an extension and what documents to provide.

If the reason for visiting Spain is tourism, study or business, and the stay is for less than 90 days, NO Visa is required for US passports holders, as well as for some other nationalities. However, many other nationalities always do require a Visa, regardless of the purpose and length of stay.

If an extension of the stay is needed, it will have to be requested once in Spain, from the Spanish Authorities). If stay is more than 6 months a non-resident alien ID card must be obtained from the Spanish Authorities, during the first month of stay.

Rule for Extension of Schengen Visa

A Schengen visa may only be extended if new facts have arisen since the visa was issued. Applications to extend a visa must be duly substantiated by force majeure, humanitarian grounds or serious occupational or personal reasons. A visa extension may not result in the duration of the stay exceeding 90 days.

Competent authority

The competent authority is that of the Schengen State on whose territory the applicant happens to be when the application is submitted, even if the extension of the visa means the applicant will travel to the territory of another Schengen State.

Unless otherwise decided by the authority which extends the visa, the extended visa remains a Schengen visa, entitling entry to the territory of all the Schengen States for which the visa was valid at the time of issue. The authority may charge a fee for extending visas.
