This is true, that question is not asked on the application form. With that in mind, perhaps I would after all not mention my previous overstay.

What I would suggest is applying in good time, in case any of this causes a delay.

Thank you all!

This has definitely put my mind at ease. I probably won't mention anything in that case and hope for the very best. Not travelling for another few months but always good to do a bit of research and get some advice

Sorry to bring this up again.

I received another email from the Embassy saying that I should send both of my passports along with my visa application to them and they will look into it. So, basically, if I don't attach the passport with the overstay stamp they won't really notice it, will they?

You have only mentioned two passports, right?

The old one with the overstay stamp.
The new one.

Clearly, they are expecting to receive TWO passports from you.

What part of "send both" didn't you understand?

Never mind. I'm thinking far too much

Would it be rude if I said that I disagree with you...?
