Hi - I am wondering if anyone has overstayed their tourist visa while in Portugal? I am looking to go to Lisbon but I don’t meet the digital nomad visa requirements (10k in the bank, plus there’s a huge wait).
Do borders check how long you’ve stayed? Has anyone got a fine? Which countries are strict and which are not?
Be aware that Portugal is Schengen. If you overstay there, then other Schengen countries (so most of Europe) may not allow you entry in future. That doesn’t always happen but it’s a pretty massive risk if you’re from the UK.
