Referring to the new regs of March 2009 where married spouses and children under the age of 21 or dependant of EU nationals are exempted from obtaining a Schengen visa to travel to the EEA if they hold:
- a valid passport;
- a valid UK residence permit issued by the Home Office with the endorsement "family member of EEA national" (art 10 of the European council/parliament directive 2004/38 ce);
- and if they are joining or travelling with the EU national
I satisfy the all of the above however, my reason for seeking clarifcation as to whether I should apply for a Schengen Visa (as a precautionary measure) is because my EEA Residence permit was issued by the Home Office endorsed on 'Immigration Status Document'. The stamp was not placed in my passport or as an ID card but on an A4 document.
Will this be acceptable by the authorities at the airport? Would they even know what it is?
Kind Regards,
Pasha
