Of course you can - that's the whole point of Schengen visas.didsburysmancs wrote:Does anyone know if we get a dutch schenghen visa - say for a 90 day period multiple entry - can we use that to enter France?
If the applicant was to vacation for say 2 weeks in France, then the answer somewhere along the route of ".... I went to France for 2 days and then went to Holland for 10 days and then came back to France for 2 days and then came back to UK..." should cover almost everything I can think of. As the French embassy still has problems answering about applications reguarding Civil Partnerships, such interesting interpretations of the rules become necessary to get around the red tape.didsburysmancs wrote:It does say in the regulations that application for a Schenghen Visa must be made to the country that intend to go to first or stay in the longest
Smashing idea, never thought of this. Makes perfect sense e.g. Eurostar direct to Lille or Paris, then a train through Belguim to Holland. I went to Italy once via Nice as I couldn't be bothered with the hassle of an Italian Schengen (maybe things are better now but they were ridiculously fussy years ago) Flew to Nice then took the train to Genoa via San Remo. Lovely view of the med thoughout!Docterror wrote:Didsburysmancs, if an applicant was to apply at another Schengen embassy, say Dutch while the real intention is to go to only France, the way out in case a question arises about the lack of entry and exit stamps from Holland at the Dutch embassy when you apply a second time is right in front of our noses.

They are simply saying that they do not recognize civil partnerships under the strict definition of "family member" contained in Article 2 point 2 of the Directive. Fair enough. But they, like the Irish (http://www.justice.ie/80256E01003A02CF/ ... Q6PEFCN-en), are still required to deal with (or facilitate) Beneficiaries.didsburysmancs wrote:L'alinéa de la directive CE 2004/38 que vous mentionnez, se poursuit ainsi: "si la législation de l'etat membre d'accueil considère le partenariat enregistré comme équivalent à un mariage" ce qui n'est pas le cas de la France.
