Spain Visa Extension

In case of an unplanned event coming up, or any medical emergency, one still can't apply for a Visa extension while being in the Schengen area. The process of a Spain Visa Extension is tough and can beextremely hectic to you but you can try for Visa extension (advisable through a well-known travel agency) if there's no option left. However, we would still suggest you to come back to your home country, get a visa renewed with the same process and travel again to the Schengen country.

When do you need a Spain (Schengen) Visa Renewal?

Applicants cannot renew a visa while staying in the Schengen Zone and have to apply for a new visa from their home country. However, to extend a Spain visa it is very important to apply on time, which is before the expiration of your visa. If you apply after your visa expires, even just a day later, then you will be deported for overstaying your visa, despite of your reasons. Therefore, take care to apply at least a week before your current Spain short-stay visa expires.
