As per guidance given to me by Czech embassy yes that is the case I would say. But remember you can only travel direct to Czech republic for that and cannot go through another country in schengen as that would require you to have airport transit visa and believe me there are very few airlines flying...

Thanks EU for that, I never knew the below regulations The residence permit of a member of the family of a citizen of the European Union who has not exercised the right of free movement must contain the entry “family member” My biometrics card even through issued OUTSIDE the immigration rules of UKB...

Punjab thanks for that. My situation is entirely different from you. Yes I am spouse and have biometric card however I have neither of the visa issued to you (EEA spouse visa or the permanent card), however thanks for sharing. I will see how it goes. My partner is British so there is another twist t...

Well just received my passport back. I have been issued 6 months multiple entry visa schengen visa. I really am not that bothered about the charge as it was nominal. It just proves that for the next time I will have no issues getting the visa. The reason I paid was because I had gone to London to ge...

Just so that other people can benefit from my experience I am sharing my experience of the czech embassy below. #Went to Czech Embassy on Tuesday #Went with partner (UK Citizen- I am non EU Citizen) #Went prepared (Application form-only filled areas where spouse needs to fill, although didn't need t...

Yes, one of the family member is British Citizen. We are just going on holiday. Flying through Germany. We are going to fill the application form for schengen visa only the ones required (without *). We are also planning to just turn up at the czech embassy without the appointment as mentioned on th...

Hi There,
Is there anyone here who has had a recent experience at Czech embassy in London in regards to getting a schengen visa for their non-eu spouse with UK stay (not eea family member visa)?

Right!!! Some update,,, I mentioned in one of my previous posts that I will contact BMIBABY, however there was no information on website in regards to people who have yet to book tickets to contact them (they charge a huge amount for issuing letters). Anyway, I thought what's the harm and is worth a...

juanitajv, Your case is very different from mine. I do not have "Residence Card as Family Member and an EEA National" I am civil partner of British Citizen with discretionary leave to remain here. So lot of EEA countries have different rules for my situation. I have to say Czech republic i...

Hi, Czech republic is insistent that I do not need schengen visa as I am now travelling direct. As I am now not due to fly soon. I am trying to get hold of someone in BMI baby to answer my question as to whether they would let me get on. If they say no then I would have to go back to the czech embas...

EU
I plan to fly with BMIbaby.
However tried their site and nowhere they state where to contact to ask for advice.
Only if you have booking reference that you can contact them.
So will have to how I get around it.

Wow, You guys are so helpful. I am amazed. Thank you all. After to and fro emails (as listed previously) with Czech embassy I am going to try to go direct to Prague and not go via any other country. If Czech embassy had said " that I dont need a visa for them but for germany I will and that I c...

Thank you for your replies, Very interesting topic I would say. Not that it solves issues in regards to visa. EU I will try to ask the Czech embassy that as I am travelling through Germany and as that is no where I am going to spend most of my time, it is in fact Czech republic therefore they should...

Hi EUsmileWEallsmile, I took your advice and sent an email to the Czech embassy and have received following advice. Dear Sir/Madam, I have query in regards to Schengen visa for my civil partner (Non- EU National Indian). Just to confirm:- I am a British Citizen My partner is Indian National who has ...

Agree EUsmile, I don't want the hassle at the point of entry. Therefore have decided to get the schengen visa. But then I run into another thing. Czech embassy has following advice for non eu nationals - family members of UK citizen who have no residence permit to do the following. "Family memb...

Thank you for that. However the conflicting information I am getting from the embassies and europa direct is what's worrying me. Czech embassy has again confirmed that I can travel there visa free if I travel i directly there:- They directed me towards what's posted on their website....... Family me...

Thank you for your reply,
So does it mean that even though I am a civil partner of British Citizen I still cannot travel to EU without visa. Is it due to residence permit not mentioning the Family member?
Also that there is no transit visa required?
Thank you for your help on this.

Hi There, I find this forum extremely helpful and finally I thought I would post something in relation to my issue. I will first outline what my status is in UK and what I have on BRP card.
