"The abolition of border checks between Schengen states does not mean this rule is not enforced. In fact, Schengen has not diminished police powers. One example is the power for police to stop foreigners on the street and check passports. There are no figures on how frequent this is but the power is in the regulations.
Another misconception is that applying for the visa waives these rules. It doesn�t. Whether a tourist or a visa hopeful, people are expected to abide by the 90 day stay limit. Not doing so is one of the common reasons for visas being rejected. In hindsight, Janice admits that knowing this would have changed things. For this reason Gosmanov� urges applicants to obtain relevant and accurate information before starting the application process." |
