If you overstay the dates given on your visa you risk being deported and denied re-entry into the Schengen area. All visa travel details are stored on the unified Visa Information System (VIS).
Schengen Area
The Schengen Area is a zone in which 27 European countries (including Norway) have abolished their internal borders to allow for free and unrestricted movement of people, while also adhering to common rules for controlling external borders and combating criminality by bolstering the common judicial system and police cooperation.
Except for Ireland and the nations that will soon be part of Romania, Bulgaria, and Cyprus, the Schengen Area encompasses the majority of EU countries. Norway, Iceland, Switzerland, and Lichtenstein are all members of the Schengen zone despite not being EU members.
