Deportation for Schengen Visa Overstay

My sons travelled in Europe and were not aware they needed a Shengen visa until they exited through Switzerland. They were pulled aside, given a form in German and went on their way. My one son attempted to pay the fine but was told he did not have enough time. How do we get this taken care of so they return at some point? Who can we contact. The Swiss consulate says it is not something they deal with. Any suggestions???

I went into estonia in september last year and overstayed until june this year. I exited through madrid with no problems. My question is I exited so I could get paperwork to apply for a school in estonia (which is the reason for the overstay, hoping that someone could mail these papers to me but they never did). As of right now I cant apply for current semesters schools and have to wait to apply for winter semester classses. I have a return ticket for mid august with an entry in finland. As you may guess, from june 13 to august 15 there is not 90 days. Is there any way in which they may let me back in? Could i argue that the 180 days was expired thus this being a new 90 days (and having the papers I came to the states for in hand) I might be able to get in and then go to a student visa locally in estonia.

hi wade shepard,you didnt give me my answer is there any problem or not because i come in invitation so when i will try to leave this country then the person who send me invitation he get problem or not…..

and thanks ashly to advise.

Hello. I am Australian. So I have traveled the world for the ast 4 years. Understand what annoying visa stuff is like from living in Brazil. I traveled to UK May 2014 and know I don’t need any special visa there unless its to stay long periods. I do not get too many questions regarding supporting myself financially as I work where I travel as I play poker professionally. Now in regards to all this knowledge about ‘shengan countries’ I was completely naive. I just thought Each country had its own restrictions and upon entering any Euro country I am pretty sure I checked if I needed to obtain a visa upon entering. I first entered Spain in June 2014 via Aircraft then entered and stayed in Portugal till October 2014. I then left and flew to Poland and was there was 6 months. In this time period however I had flown to Belgium, Uk and Czech Republic all for no more than 2 weeks and all back to Poland. All of this travel from looking at my passport I only got stamped in UK and a few stamps in Poland.
March 2015 I traveled to Malta with the intention to stay for undesignated period of time, with some intention to apply for some sort of long stay visa. Everything seems pretty chilled here and I just seemed to not care about it. Beginning of June this year I decide I want to travel to Las Vegas for a month for poker. I book my airfares with a return without thinking about anything and still not even having heard the term ‘Shengen’. I book my airfare which went Malta – Amsterdam – Zurich – Chicago – Las Vegas and Almost identical return.
Now this is where it all starts. I have a connecting flight where I need to travel through customs in Zurich airport. Customs stops me I go to their special room and I get fined and sorted quickly and I have enough time to make it to my connecting flight. Guy doesn’t elaborate on much, just says I have overstayed etc. I assumed I have been caught and everything carries on.
I return from Las Vegas traveling back through Zurich Airport genuinely forgetting about last time. Here we go again. They do not miss a beat here at Zurich! In and out of Schengen sections there! This time was more serious. I explained that the last customs officer didn’t even ask me if I had a return etc etc., and this is how I ended up here again! After an hour or 2 they said I had to either be put on a return flight back to San Fransisco OR Book a direct flight to a Non Shengen country. I booked a flight indirect to uk initially and wasted 200 euros since he was not clear the first time then I obviously booked another flight direct to London this time. I knew this would be very annoying being in London applying for some long stay Visa just to get back to Malta but it was my only option. I had to email the officer my Booking confirmation. My flight was the next day so I stayed in the ‘transit hotel’ inside Zurich Airport absolutely hating life and not having slept for well over 30hrs.
So the next day I had time to figure out the landscape of the Airport. I realised that the Airport seemed segregated in some way. I seemed to be stuck in the D/E Zone where it was just hopeless. Ie no Information Desk hardly any Food bars. I guess also in the back of my mind, not anyone could just cross into the other sections. Anyway I decided to try get through with no real ulterior intentions. So I simply waited in line in customs. There were 2 lines and I decided the older guy had more chance to overlook my Passport. I handed it over and just said I have a flight booked to London but there’s no information desk there etc etc. I guessed I distracted him a little. He just stamps it then I walk through. I then officially realised by looking at a board, that you could only gets flights to Shengan countries from the area I was in. I then felt like I had escaped from prison in some way without having any clear intentions to continue the ‘run’. Anyway after some contemplation I went and asked if there were flights to Malta. There was one boarding in 15mins. I booked it and that was it. I was nervous, knowing I was taking a risk. I seriously felt like authorities might come after me. Anyway, I made it back to Malta! And yes I know I am not here ‘legally’ but also know I am not alone and I am not a criminal!
Now this is where my question lies. I need to travel to Spain for a family members wedding and back to Malta. Then to leave to Australia in November at the latest. Will customs at either Malta Airport or Madrid Airport Scan or question my Passport? I know from experience in these countries they seem relaxed but I am worried about the few percent chance here? I also read that worst case scenario they will tell you that you need to leave on your own accord and that they do not physically deport you? Last question – Do you or anyone with great knowledge think I should travel Via Land ie Ferry then land transport?
Or is this simply a case of being in ‘The ‘Shengen’ Area already and will just have to wait until departing the area.
In relation to Switzerland Authorities I am almost certain I will receive at least a One year ban from their country. My understanding from speaking to the Officer is that it differs from countries within. Also I see that Switzerland is in the Shengen Region But ‘NON EU’. Does my problem lie more with just Switzerland at the moment? I do not particularly care about being banned from Switzerland for a few years but do not want to be banned from the entire Area for several years for the future.
Anyway if you or anyone could assist in answering these latter questions of mine in would greatly decrease my potential anxiety traveling in September.
