The form is quite old and predates some important rulings, most notably Metock, which prohibited member states from insisting that family members had to live in another member state before benefiting from the directive. Oh ok thank you. So the questio...

Do I have to hand in an endorsed copy of my passport or will a normale copy be accepted as well? You will need a certified copy of your passport, this can be done by the embassy of your country. I assume I can do this at the Dutch consulate in Edingburgh? Or does that have to be done in Afghanistan?
