If you enter France on a travel visa(90 DAY), can you apply to stay longer while still in Frane?

No. Absolutely not. You’ll have to leave, reapply and then go back. Been there. Done that. Unless you are a member of an EU country, then it may be different. If you’re from the US, no dice.

If you’re an EU citizen, you don’t need a visa.

If you’re from the US you don’t need a travel visa. You can stay 3 months just carrying your passport. Only if you want to stay longer you need to apply to get a visa.

I found a way to stay longer. Visa D… Alot of hours on the phone and alot talking in circles. Orig. I am from PA,USA but it looks like France is home this year at least.
