Schengen Agreement 申根协定


(图片资源: Jiri, 我的教授送来的捷克网报, http://www.novinky.cz/clanek/129341-obrazem-cesko-vstoupilo-do-evropy-bez-hranic.html)




历史性的一刻, 匈牙利, 捷克等中欧国家, 21/12/2007成为申根协定国!!!
现在... 这一刻... 人民在外头欢呼倒数!!!!
从此, 我到大多数的欧洲国家都不用护照了!!!!
申根, 无国界梦想国!!!




可能, 申根协定国对不爱旅行的朋友会很陌生.
在此, 我把网站的资料整理. 如下:

欧 洲申根签证(European Schengen Visa),源于1985年6月14日在卢森堡申根城签署的一份国际公约。该条约由德国、法国、荷兰、比利时和卢森堡5国达成。协议规定了单一的签证政 策,即凡外籍人士持有任何一个申根会员国核发的有效入境签证,可以多次进出其会员国,而不需另外申请签证。因此,前往西欧德、荷、法、比、卢5国旅行,只 需获得其中一国的签证即可。




Schengen countries are those that have signed a 1985 Schengen agreement abolishing border checks/controls and harmonizing provisions that allow a common visa to visit all 30 participating countries.

Note that the term “Schengen countries” does not refer to all EU member states or European countries and includes non-EU countries.
