Can I extend the Schengen visa?
By: Antonio Villena
📢 Did you know that it is possible to extend a Schengen visa stay? While the duration of a Schengen visa is limited, there are specific circumstances in which you can apply for an extension. For example, if you are in the European Union for reasons of national interest, humanitarian reasons, or family matters, you may be entitled to extend your stay.
👉 Common reasons to apply for an extension:
·
National Interest: Important figures, such as politicians or actors, may receive an extension to complete essential activities.
·
Family Circumstances: If a close family member falls seriously ill while you are in Europe, you can apply for an extension to be by their side.
·
Humanitarian Reasons: If you or a family member experience a medical emergency, you can request an extension with the appropriate documentation.
⏩ It is crucial to submit the application before the visa expires and to accompany it with solid evidence, such as medical reports or official documents.
