Re: Shengen visa as Tourism or Family member of EEA/EU

The option on the Greek website for visa application did not show UK/England on the form for the EU/EEA which raised my doubts and henceforth i am on here ! Just to make it clear: the UK (and with it, England) is no longer an EU/EEA country since Brexit, so the visa advantages that came with EU mem...

Re: France visa query

Thanks CR001 For British citizen, do they need anything as well to travel to France? Currently, British citizens do not have to apply for a visa if they are going for touristic purposes and stay for less than 90 days in 180 (unless there is some kind of ban in place for the person or similar). Next...

Did you read ALKB's post? The first sentence answers your question. If you are still in France, expect some questioning when you leave the country. I already left and I wasn’t caught, the question is can I still get in trouble if I don’t go back until I have my 90 days allowance back? You might sti...

I don't understand, the exact reason for refusing her application.

It is expected that you would provide
your birth certificate, in full, to demonstrate your parentage.
Did you provide your birth certificate?

Re: Receiving EU citizenship soon, been in the UK for 3 years

Why he wasn't an EU national at the time is irrelevant and in all likelihood, given he's been in the UK on a visa/as a non-EU national, UKVI will ask him to provide evidence of citizenship prior to Dec 2020. Now, I don't know, but from a purely legal point of view Croatia may have always regarded h...
