Visa for American married to British native.

[Beardedgastronaut]

Hello everyone,

My husband works for the circus. That circus is now going to Europe for the next three years. He is British and I am American and we got married in the US. I want to be able to move to Europe with him and travel with the circus. We will be in Belgium for three months and then Spain for at least a year. I would also like to be able to work in the EU.

My question is, Is there a streight foward way to apply for a working visa for an amarican married to a U.K. Citizen that will be working in the EU? I would appreciate any help with where to start, what requirements I would need to meet and what type of visa would I have to apply for.

Thanks for your help in advance.

If you will have a permanent address somewhere in the eu and your spouse will be paying taxes there, I would suggest you wait until your husband is settled in Spain (or any country where he will based for a longer period of time) you could join him for 90 days as a tourist and in that time apply for a residency permit based on your spouse being an eu citizen living and working in Spain or whichever eu country. If you won't have a permanent address and are travelling around and your husband is not a registered tax payer there, it will be problematic I think. You may have to travel over to your husband for 90 day periods at a time on a tourist visa, fly back to the US and return again at a later date. Obviously an expensive exercise. The first thing to find out is whether your husband will remain a US taxpayer with the circus he works for. If that is the case i don't think there is much chance for a residency application within the eu.
