Facilitation of mobility of bonafide and frequent travellers Sample Clauses

Facilitation of mobility of bonafide and frequent travellers. The Visa Code sets the goal of providing a simplified procedure for applicants known to the consulate for their integrity and reliability and issuing MEVs for frequent or regular travellers to facilitate smooth travel and lessen the administrative burden for the consulates.289 This goal is however hindered by a number of problems, which either make the intended facilitations redundant, since the Member States don’t know how to make use of them or lead to different interpretations in the different Member States. The first problem encountered is the lack of an official definition of a bona-fide traveller. Several Member States have indicated that they would welcome further clarifications and guidance as to what these concepts meant.290 Articles 24(2)(b) and 26(4)(b) VC only lift a tip of the veil: they stipulate that an applicant can prove his integrity and reliability by lawful use of previous Schengen visas, his economic situation in his country of origin and his genuine intention to leave the territory of the Member States before the expiry of 283 ibid 10. 284 See Xxxxxxxxxx and others, ‘Monitoring Report’ (n 227) 9-15.

This rather vague concept is not good for legal certainty and leaves a lot of discretion for the Member States,291 leading to unilateral approaches by some Member States, causing confusion for the applicant and even giving rise to visa shopping.292 Secondly, the three intended facilitations can give rise to problems. Article 10(2) VC first of all provides that the requirement on lodging in person might be waived for this category of travellers. Secondly, article 14(6) states that the consulates may wave the requirement of certain supporting documents. Thirdly, the MEVs shall be issued with a validity-period between six months and five years, according to 24(2)(b) VC. The first two are ‘may-clauses’, meaning that a lot of discretion is left to the Member States to decide on how they apply them, causing uncertainty with the app...
