Hi there guys sorry to dredge up this old post but i reckon its better than starting a new one...

So heres my question: I have my schengen visa, am in Palma, and have a prospective job(This is not hypothetical ) The only problem is where do I go from here in terms of my Visa(which expires in 2 months)

Do I have to go back to SA and renew it or can I just hop the border and go to France and renew it there? (apparently you can go to Geneva... hmmm)

Also, what are the steps to go through to get a seamans discharge booklet?

Many Thanks

Matt
