    Passport and Visa

    Last update: 1/01/2007

    A visa is often required to stay/live in the country of your destination. You must request the form and get the information to the English Consulate when you are still in your country of origin.

    Do not mix consulate and embassy. The embassy is the representation of the State in a foreign country and is in charge of all the relations with the government of the country where located. The consul protects and administrates the community coming from his country. However, you must usually live for 6 months in the country before you have to register. You will find all the information by asking the Consulate.

    In the 27 countries of the European community, a valid National Identity Card or Passport is enough. You don’t have to fill any other form in. In many cases, your new company will do the formalities for you.

    The 27 countries of the European Union are: Germany, France, The United Kingdom, Spain, Portugal, Austria, Italy, Finland, Ireland, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Belgium, Denmark, Greece, Sweden, Czech Republic, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Romania.
