Extension of the Sweden medical treatment visa

Although many believe that extending a short-term Sweden medical treatment visa is impossible, it is in fact entirely possible. It is very difficult, but if you have a strong reason on which you base your application, you have a good chance of receiving a visa extension. Before deciding to extend your Schengen visa, find out about your visa's validity and your type of visa.

According to Schengen visa policy, acceptable reasons for extending a short-term Schengen visa only include late entry, humanitarian reasons, urgent and special reasons and important personal reasons.

Usually, processing of your visa extension application by the relevant authorities may take from a few days to a month. During this time, you are permitted to stay in the country where you submitted your application, even after your visa has expired, but you must not travel to other Schengen countries.

If you are granted the visa, you can stay there, whereas if this does not happen, you have one or two days to leave Sweden.

Cost of extending the Sweden medical treatment visa

The cost of extending the Sweden medical treatment visa differs from the normal Schengen visa fee that you apply for before travelling to the Schengen area. Depending on your reasons for applying to extend the short-term Schengen visa, and whether it is your first or second extension request, you may or may not have to pay a fee.
