Exemptions have to be truly justified.

I never saw that happen.
Not by any Schengen consulate.

If she has the the UK residence card there is no need for a Schengenvisa if she travels with you. Should she travel alone or with her mother she still needs a visa but it's not free. Besides: if someone has a UK visa he or she does not need the Airport transit visa (ATV) from a Schengen country. So ...

Did your wife already file her application?
And to your satisfaction?

Maybe my answer in another topic might be informative and of help. With regard to Directive 2004/38/EC visa issues it's unfortunately beter to avoid Belgian embassies anywhere in the world if possible. In the case of the Philippines it's better to plan a trip to Poland as in such a case the visa can ...

With regard to Directive 2004/38/EC visa issues it's unfortunately beter to avoid Belgian embassies anywhere in the world if possible. In the case of the Philippines it's better to plan a trip to Poland as in such a case the visa can be applied for at the Dutch embassy (remember to proove Poland is ...

I read the UK charges the same fee for the registration certificate which in my opinion is incorrect. The only requirements are stated in art. 8 par. 3 of Directive 2004/38/EC. No fee is mentioned there. So the certificate has to be issued free as do other member states. Anyone ever challenged this ...

If you travel together in theory your wife could do so joining you without a visa (Brax-ruling). However she will have difficulties in boarding the plane. So it's best she applies for a visa from any Schengen embassy, as this will entitle her to enter the Schengen area of the EU with you. The visa ...

The Embassy of the Netherlands in Beijing asked us to show our tickets, which we did. The visa was issued and the passport returned to my partner within 3 days. You didn't have to discuss anything with them? The Spanish Embassy in Beijing didn't ask to see tickets. The visa was issued in 20 minutes ...

First of all you have a free period of stay of three months. So has your wife. So at the border there is nothing to tell or arrange. Your right to stay for more than 3 months (and thus her right) is based on you working there. When you have already your contract you can just register in your new ...

Sorry, did not read your last line.

But why all the fuss?
She can travel on her own without a visa.
Her marriage with you does not add anything substantial (with regard to her visa free travel possibilities).

Unfortunately your wife will have to apply for a visa at the Spanish Embassy/Consulate in London. However: the visa is free and she shouldn't show more than the marriage certificate (and you passport). It will help if the marriage is registered in the UK one way or another, though this is not ...

... take a good look at the Resident stamp ... When I read this I fear the UK does not fully comply with EU rules. Registration certificates for EU citizens as well as residence cards for their dependent family members HAVE TO BE issued as separate documents (thus should NEVER be a mere stamp or ...

Having travelled with my Russian wife, over 16 times around various EU countries, we have had not much problems apart from the usual airline ignorant staff. ... In the middle of 2010, I thought we had finished with all these nonsense, when I received an invitation to visit an Irish friend in Dublin ...

That should be very simple. She needs the original marriage certificate and a copy of your passport. Plus u properly filled out Schengen Visa Application form . This means: do NOT punt anything in the fields marked with an *. At question 21 she merely writes "other" and specifies I accompany my UK ...

No she cannot. She has to apply for a Schengen Visa. However any Schengen state has to issue her this visa and free of charge. Should she by accident land at the border with you and without a visa, but in the possession of her original marriage certificate the French are not allowed to refuse her ...

Get any refusal to enter the country in writing and have them write detailed reasons why they are refusing to admit you. Be sure that the refusal mentions that your NL wife was there and that you presented a marriage certificate. It will make it easier to claim compensation later. A refusal should ...

The problem you can face is Dutch will say the trip of your Dutch wife to her home country means Directive 2004/38/EC does not apply. Should you face this problem lack of the passport will prevent you from entering the country. In my opinion however Directive 2004/38/EC applies given you are ...

Do not forget the other Dutch forums like Mixed-Couples and Recht op Gezinshereniging . If you think you can find the proper job till September your plan is a good one. A proper job is one that brings you at least € 1231 per months and is for at least 12 moths the moment your husband applies for hi ...

They should be aware of this. You can always take the Directive in English or French as well as the Guidelines of the Commission as well in English and French . The end of paragraph 2.2.1 is the information you need. Residence cards issued under Article 10 of the Directive to a family member of an ...

I doubt if you ever had Dutch nationality. You certainly did not get it by birth if not one of your parents was Dutch at that time. Should you have obtained Dutch nationality you will not loose it as long as you stay in the EU. If you move out you will only loose it after ten years but only if you ...

The Netherlands will not provide you any problems.

You do not even have to get married so you can choose time and place whenever it suits you best.

Most of us speak English, but it would be nice if you learn Dutch in due course.
No obligation however.

This depents what kind of residence card she has. Only the one issued on the basis of article 10 of Directive 2004/38/EC frees her from any visa obligation and only when travelling together with you or joining you later. Article 10 Issue of residence cards 1. The right of residence of family members ...

This question can only be answered if we know what is your nationality, what's your parents, where you are actually living and what exactly is written on your residence permit.

Nice information Pierre. Maybe you know if the appeal procedure in visa cases and cases of residence permits in France differs from any other administrative procedure in France? For instance in The Netherlands normally you have to appeal within six weeks. The exception are appeals on the basis of ...

That is consistent with the Common Consular Instructions, that is it is left to national laws whether a reason must be given or whether an appeal is possible. As of April 2010 the Community Code on Visas will come in force with more detailed instructions, replacing all preceding regulations. As of ...
