Schengen visa question
I have gotten into a confusing situation thanks to some bad planning
on my part. I had some tentative plans to visit Germany for a few days and I applied for a tourist visa at the German consulate in San Francisco . They issued me a multiple entry Schengen visa today that is valid for the duration of the trip but now my plans appears certain to change because of some friends and we now intend to visit Finland on the same dates instead. I do not have enough time on my hands to apply at the Finnish consulate which also has to be done by mail, so is it possible to use the German schengen visa to travel to Finland? It was issued based on a German itenirary so I am wondering if it restricts me to have to visit Germany first? This restriction would practically mean that I would need to cancel my trip. Any tips appreciated, thanks |

Any tips appreciated, Why not ring up the Finnish visa office and ask them. I must add that the last time someone travelled with me on a Schengen visa it wasn't stamped at all on entry or exit so there's no proof it was used at the appropriate border on the first time it was used. neither was there any checking of the rather silly insurance rules... -- William Black I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Barbeques on fire by the chalets past the castle headland I watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off the Newborough gate All these moments will be lost in time, like icecream on the beach Time for tea. |
