Take the 2-minute tour ×  I got a single-entry Schengen visa for
83 days. By the end of the 83 days, do I have to leave the
Schengen area to my home country (Egypt) or am I allowed to
leave to any other country as long as it's outside the Schengen
area?  eg: Could I head to Turkey? Or must I first go back to
Egypt then head to Turkey? Not to break the Schengen rules
stating that you should go back to your home country by the end
of your visa.  share|improve this question add comment  1 Answer
Visas only care about where you are not (generally) where you're
going. The visa is for the Schengen area and just means you must
leave that area before the time expires. The Schengen countries
don't care where you're going.  Or course, you'll need a valid
visa for wherever you're trying to go. (As the airlines/other
transport, at least, will check that).  share|improve this
