  • How to switch from Resident visa to Tourist visa status in the Schengen area?

    3 answers




I'm a citizen of Argentina residing in France with a long-stay visa for an internship, valid from September 5th 2018 until January 5th 2019. As an argentinian, I'm allowed to visit Europe as a tourist for up to 3 months without any kind of visa.



Can I stay after my visa expires, by "using" those days, or must I leave on that date? What if I exit the Schengen area and then reenter as a tourist?



I'd only stay for a a few days, about 3, but I guess it doesn't make a difference.

    @HonoraryWorldCitizen Given that their nationality allows them to leave and then immediately re-enter without a visa, it's not at all unreasonable for a non-expert to wonder whether the leaving is necessary. They're trying to understand the rules, not 'flout' or 'rewrite' them.

What if I exit the Schengen area and then reenter as a tourist?




Yes you can do that. You must exit before or when your visa expires. Go somewhere else and then make your visa free entry request. Whether they let you in or not is just speculation at this point but if you are able to convince them to let you in, there is no rule you're breaking.

  • Thanks! So I must really leave? In that case I probably won't do it, I just want to book a flight on the 7th instead of the 5th.

    Is there no "waiting period" to re-enter Schengen under a different visa? Can OP literally go to the Schengen border, cross out of Schengen, then turn around and re-enter as tourist for the 90 days?

Apolo y la Nueve Musas En la mitología griega, las musas (en griego antiguo μοῦσαι « mousai» ) son, según los escritores más antiguos, las divinidades inspiradoras de las Artes: cada una de ellas está relacionada con ramas artísticas y del conocimiento. Son hijas de Zeus y de Mnemósine, compañeras del séquito de Apolo, dios olímpico de la música y patrón de las bellas artes, quien tuvo romances con cada una de ellas, dejando descendientes. Bajaban a la tierra a susurrar ideas e inspirar a aquellos mortales que las invocaran. En la época más arcaica eran las ninfas inspiradoras de las fuentes, en las cuales eran adoradas. Finalmente, alrededor de los siglos VIII-VII a. C. [ 1 ] ​ prevaleció en todo el territorio de la Hélade la adoración de las nueve Musas, que son Calíope, Clío, Erato, Euterpe, Melpómene, Polimnia, Talía, Terpsícore y Urania.
