I am in Spain with Type D visa expiring on Aug 2017. I had NIE but lost it. Can I travel to other Schengan countries without NIE?
Best Answer
A type D visa allows you to travel freely for up to 90 of every 180 days in the Schengen countries other than the one that issued the visa.
"NIE" appears to be a Spanish personal identification number. It is unclear what you mean by having "lost" it. Did you simply forget which number you were assigned, or did the Spanish authorities actively cancel a number they had assigned you? In any case, this should not concern you for travel in the other Schengen states; the D visa is sufficient documentation for your right to do that.
