I sent a text

Thanks. I have replied.

You’re confused because there’s actually no legal reason to use Croatia — and that’s okay. The truth is simple: Italy is your only correct destination...
Moreover the person doesn't charge high at all. I sent you a message

You mean my email? I haven't seen the message.

No, you should not reapply without mentioning Italy — that would be misrepresentation and could lead to a refusal or future Schengen issues.
Only extend your stay in Croatia if it is genuinely your main destination and fully supported by documents; otherwise, it’s not advisable.
Best option: apply through TLS Italy, since Italy is your main destination and business sponsor; alternatively, apply via Croatia only if your itinerary truly makes Croatia your longest stay...
I've who can navigate you getting a TLS slot though

Thank you very much for your reply 🙏. I truly appreciate. The reason for Croatia in the first place was because I couldn't get Italy Slot on TLS, so Croatia is not genuinely my main destination. Italy is my main destination.

Few questions please:
1.Yea, TLS is my main stay. I assume the person might charge me a lot. And being that my company are white guys, I am always transparent with them. So, I am being careful of how I go about this. What do you think?
2. What do you mean by "if your itinerary truly makes Croatia your longest stay"? Honestly, my company retreat or get-together is actually happening in Italy. And my company already booked my hotel in Italy. So I have no main reason staying in Croatia at all. What should I hold as a reason for staying in Croatia if it is to be my longest stay?
3. I am confused.

Hi there,

Please, I am going to Italy on a Business visit sponsored by my company but TLS has no slots for Italy. Then I applied through VFS to Croatia so that I can go to Italy from there. In my documents, VFS noticed I am not actually staying long in Croatia and that they can't proceed.

1. Should I reapply without mentioning Italy at all?
2. Should I tell my company to extend my stay in Croatia more than Italy?
3. What is the best way to go about this scenario?
