I'm currently traveling around Scandinavia (main cointry is Norway) on a single entry Schengen C visa, but would like to travel to Croatia for a short holiday before returning to Norway, then back to my home country in Asia. However, the Croatian Ministry of Foreign Affairs website says they allow holders of the Schengen visa entry into the country if it's a two or multiple entry visa. Is it possible to obtain an extension of a multiple entry visa while still in Norway or the Schengen area?

  • What's your country of origin? i.e. are you entitled to "visa-free" (aka visa on arrival) entry to Schengen countries? Commented Jun 27, 2014 at 7:23

It's simply not possible, you need to apply where you reside. You could apply for a Croatian visa (although I think they have the same rules) but you would still have no easy way to reenter the Schengen area.

Depending on your citizenship and situation, an alternative could be to apply for a national long-stay visa, see What are the options for a non-EU national who wants to stay in Sweden for more than 90 days? Such a visa would give you the right to go to Croatia and reenter the Schengen area.
