How can I get a longer duration Schengen tourist visa?

Upvote:3

Different countries are handling the duration of your visa differently. Currently Spain is (still) very easily handing out multiple entry visas with a duration of upto 6 months. Other countries are way stricter.

It also depends where you are from. If you are from a country where people often overstayed or even tried to stay permanently, it will be way more difficult to get a longer duration visa.

General tips: it would help if you are working with a company which has offices in some european countries and if you could provide documents stating that you would like to socialize (i.e. "meet") with colleagues on a private basis. Also providing a more or less detailed plan of your trip when applying at the consulate does also help.

Good luck!
