Non EU Citizen married to EU Citizen

[nice and smooth]

I wanted to know if a non EU National with EU Fam (Stamp 4) can travel to Germany or any European country without Spouse. Thanks

Stamp 4EUFam would be only valid to travel another EU member state if your EU spouse is travelling with you and u have ur marriage certificate with you. Travelling on ur own with Stamp 4EUFam is not enough for you.

Calvin, you said on my thread that "A non-eu family member of an eu-national can travel alone every time, Once he gets an eu 5 year residence card."

Please can you explain as reading from the reply above, I'm now really confused!

We are discussing two different things.

1- Nice & Smooth wants to know if he can visit Germany or another EU member state on his own (without his EU spouse), so the answer is : "Stamp 4EUFam would be only valid to travel another EU member state (without obtaining a visa for Germany) if your EU spouse is travelling with you and u have ur marriage certificate with you. Travelling on ur own with Stamp 4EUFam is not enough as you would require a visa for that EU member state".

Jellybean105 question was "If he can travel alone": Yes u can travel alone every where and there is no restrictions on you but you need to get a visa to enter another country. For example, you want to go to Denmark, Yes it is open for you to go but you need a visa to enter Denmark (If you are travelling alone) or If you are travelling with your EU spouse and marriage certificate you don't need a visa.

Hope i have answered your question. If not please ask, happy to explain further
