"Multiple Entry" Schengen visa

[darren-b]

We got one issued for my wife from Holland and few directly to Prague without any issues but technically you should enter by the country that issued it.

Not sure if I should really disagree with an immigration expert but... Technically you don't have to enter by the country that issued it, though the country that issued it should be your main destination.

First destination only needs to be considered if you are visiting multiple countries but don't have a main destination.

... my wife was granted a Multiple-Entry Schengen Visa by the French Embassy last November, and we duly went for a short break to Paris in early March. The validity of the visa was for six months, and it eventually expired two days ago. At some point in the not too distant future, we'd like to travel overland to Rome ... as opposed to getting there by plane. I'm not sure if Eurostar goes all the way through to Italy; if not, then the trip would involve a stopover in France ... in which case, I imagine we'd need to revisit the French Embassy in Edinburgh. Am I correct in this assumption?
