    Unsure if this is the correct place to post but it's the closest I could find.. Please move if necessary.

    A Chilean friend is currently staying with me on a holiday visit. They have been here since Dec 18th and were due to return on Jan 14th. They have a stamp in their passport allowing them to stay until Jan 16th. They work for an airline so can return at their convenience. Is it possible to extend this by a week or two? They would prefer not to have any problems when returning to Spain or Ireland in future.

    *Chileans don't require any special Visa to visit here. They just present themselves at Madrid and then Dublin airport and are questioned about their stay and given a short term visa stamped in their passport. Similar to the US but my experience in the US is they have given me 3 months regardless of how long I'll be there.


    Thanks.

    Only people that can answer is GNIB, but normally the limit is 90 days.

    Thanks, Gerard.

    They wish to stay less than 60 days in total.
