Depends which country your RC is from, and where you're going!Silwin wrote:Here's what I am and have
I am a non-EEA Family Member of an EEA national and have a 5 year residence permit.
What I need
What I need is to travel within the EU without a shenghen visa.
I've heard from some people that it is possible and some say it is not. Can someone please help me.
Thanks
Silwin
Now you are saying:Silwin wrote:I am a non-EEA Family Member of an EEA national and have a 5 year residence permit.
Trying to wind someone up?Silwin wrote:I dont have a residence card. I didnt apply for it as it wasnt necessary.
It is very clear - You were issued a 5-year UK RESIDENCE CARD/PERMIT (if you prefer) as the non-EEA family member of a Portuguese national. Correct? If so then, in theory, you should be able to travel to some EU countries w/out the need for an additional visa. You need to check the country's consular instructions first (in this case Germany).Can i not travel with a family permit on me passport?
UK has issued it to me. My dad is portuguese and i want to go germany

I dont know why your getting confused when they have answered you.Silwin wrote:According to this Gremany requires a grata card, i think this is the residence card. What about Family permit on a visa? and what about family members wanting to travel to other EU countries

So the shiny sticker in your passport reads "residence permit"?Silwin wrote:but i am not holding a non eea family permit with my spouse, its a family permit with my dad and his name is in my passport
That's very clear: get a Schengen visa if you are a visa national. Exception may exist if you have an RC. Check with the respective embassy web pages.Silwin wrote:and secondly i want to travel on my own and there is no mention of how to travel without anyone
This is the law (http://www.coe.int/T/E/Legal_Affairs/Le ... ecreto.asp):Descent from a Portuguese parent
A child born to a Portuguese parent is automatically a Portuguese citizen provided the parent was born in Portugal or is employed by the Portuguese state.
Otherwise the child may be registered as a Portuguese citizen.
Prior to 30 October 1981, there were restrictions on claiming Portuguese citizenship based on a Portuguese mother.
Here you will see Portugal does accept dual citizenship:SECÇÃO II
