5 days visa, single entry?

Post by yaktas » Sat Nov 25, 2017 1:12 pm

Hi guys,

I am writing on behalf of my brother who is a Turkish citizen.
He has applied for a tourist visa at the Greek Embassy and he was given only 5 days visa with a single entry this time. Actually this is not his first time to travel to Europe and he has never violated the rules, but I guess things are bit more complicated for Turkish citizens these days and that's why they are being more strict :(

My question is, he normally has a ticket from Turkey to Greece on the 5th of December and a return ticket on the 10th of Dec. and I guess this counts as 6 days? Since he was given only 5 days we would like to know if he should change his ticket or not?

Anybody had a similar experience here? I would really appreciate your help and advice.

Thank you in advance.

It should say the expiry date on the visa. Secondly, most schengen countries have exit controls so better to have a valid visa on the day he flies back home.
