Hi guys,

my wife is coming to join me in England with a 6 months Eaa family permit ( I am an Italian citizen living and working in London).

We will be applying for a 5 years Resident Permit when she gets here and I wanted to know if, once obtained the Resident Permit, we will be able to travel to Italy without a Scenghen Visa. We will be traveling together and my wife has now my surname on her passport...

Thank you....

That your wife will have a residence card for the UK should be sufficient for her to travel to Italy without a visa.

From the website of the Italian consulate in Manchester:-

PLEASE NOTE: The EU Directive 2004/38/CE has been implemented in Italy. Therefore, for family members of EU citizens who do not have the nationality of a Member State, but have the NEW residence permits issued by the British Home Office bearing the following wording: RESIDENCE DOCUMENTATION

"Type of Document: Residence Card of a Family Member of an EEA National"

will NOT require a Schenghen Visa for a short stay (up to 90 days).

Scouse.
