This cruise trip is rather straight foward, but for others it would be difficult to determine which country has more days. So they may have a (unpublished) understanding on how to deal with cruises (The cruise sites are not helpful in this regard). | |

| May 30 at 10:00 | comment | added | Mark Johnson | @jcaron That may be true, but for a cruise, where the exact amount of time inside the waters of each country may not be known, this may be an exception. | |
| May 30 at 9:55 | comment | added | jcaron | Sadly, many consulates, and even more so the preprocessors like VFS, completely ignore the "purpose of stay" and only take into account the number of days spent in each country. No idea whether the German consulate competent for OP (and their preprocessor) applies this or not, though. | |
