I am traveling from Bangalore to Iceland through Paris. There is a transfer I need to do from CDG to ORY. I will obtain a Schengen Visa for Iceland. Can I use the same for the CDG-ORY transfer? Will this require immigration at Paris?



Best Answer

Yes this is allowed.

Yes you will pass immigration in Paris. Even if you were connecting at the same airport in Paris, that is where you would undergo immigration - before your Schengen 'domestic' flight.
