Do I need schengen visa ? Urgent help please?

Post by Rizviraja » Wed Feb 19, 2014 8:57 am

Hi All, I need some help. I have 2 visa running in my passport. One is Residence card for non-EEA family member(EEA2) which is valid until October'2014 and another one is Permanent Residence visa(through EEA4). My question is if I travel with my wify(she is an EEA nation) to Spain do I have to have schengen visa ? Or can I just travel without having any schengen visa as my residence card for non-EEA family member visa is still valid? I know it is not difficult to apply for schengen visa in Spainish embassy, Just wanted to be clear.

Many thanks.

Thank you so much. But I am planning to travel to Spain. I know they all are in Schengen area, but do they all have same rules for non-eea family members?

Many thanks.

if you are travelling with eu spouse and have residence card as family member of eu citizen you will be ok without visa just take marriage certificate with you.
You may have to fight a battle more than once to win it.
