British citizen non British spouse

Post by joanna2014 » Thu Mar 10, 2016 12:59 pm

I'm a British passport holder my wife is from Pakistan and she got a spouse visa from UK as she is my wife,
My question is if y want to travel in Europe France for example do I need visa for my wife to go with me or her UK visa is more then enough for her to travel with me in any where in EU?

in my understanding as I am a British citizen and my wife have a valid UK visa so I dont need to apply any visit visa for EU country

please reply
thanks

Such a UK visa is only valid for UK purposes.

EU countries are not visa-free for Pakistan passport holders.

UK is not in the Schengen zone.

Wife will need a Schengen visa to enter any country that is in the Schengen zone. Apply via the embassy of country you wish to visit.
