Thank you so much for taking the time!

Calmed me down quite a bit. So worst case scenario is visa on arrival? And that visa (long 1 year?) is OK for a 4 hour layover?

I just don’t want to be sent back. But come to think about it, in all the horror stories I’ve read maybe no one was sent back.

Does being a Schengen citizen and EU passport holder help maybe?
