VISA Information for Countries

I am seriously annoyed with the Dutch for this. I've been through a lot of pain having to apply for visas, and only when I don't require going to the Netherlands do they suddenly relax the requirements. It's the story of my life...

Cafe,

It sucks that you had to go through all that. But if you look at the bigger picture, isn't it so much better that asylees who have RTD's don't need a visa to go there? If anything it shows an increasing trend that more and more Schengen countries are coming to their senses when it come to visa rules, etc. I hear Amsterdam is a GOOD time. :)
 
ISo, so far, the RTD holders are expemt from having to have a visa for short stays for the following countries:

Germany
Netherlands
Croatia
Macau (upon entry)
Montenegro (30 days)

correct me if i'm wrong guys and if u know about any other countries u can add to the list, leave a post!


Slovakia

I emailed Slovak embassy and they said RTD holders don't need visa.
 
Yes, it is better for everybody. I'm not annoyed that they did it, but just that they did it when I DON'T NEED IT! Hehe.

Amsterdam is BRILLIANT. Definitely make it a point to visit sometime, but leave your normal self behind before you go :)

RTD Travel for Asylees

Since Germany and the Netherlands are part of the Schengen Area, does this mean that you can travel the Schengen area without a visa provided you enter Germany or the Netherlands wit your RTD? Or are you restricted to stay in only either Germany or the Netherlands?
 
This from the Hungarian Embassy Web page and I went to Hungary last Sep on RTD and had no prob getting in...


Croatia, Guatemala, Holy See, Honduras, Hong Kong (the exemption applies only to holders of a “Hong Kong Special Administrative Region”), Iceland, Israel, Japan, Macao (the exemption applies only to holders of a “Regio Administrativa Especial de Macau” passport), Malaysia, Mexico, Monaco, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Norway, Panama, Paraguay, Salvador, San Marino, Singapore, South Korea, United States of America, Uruguay, Venezuela (Please check the country list).

Stateless persons and recognized refugees holders of a Travel Document issued by one of the above mentioned states, can enter without a visa (in case of US Travel Documents: if the annotation: "refugee" or "stateless" figures in the travel document it can be used for travel without a visa. A "simple" travel document without these annotations is not recognized by Hungary, and cannot be used for travel).
 
You're not allowed to leave Germany, the Netherlands, Hungary and Slovakia to go to other Schengen countries, but people often do, and they don't always get caught. But, it would be at your own risk.
 
ok so the list is:

Germany
Netherlands
Croatia
Macau (upon entry)
Montenegro (30 days)
Slovakia
Hungary

feel free to add more.

Holders of a United States Permit to Re-Enter, need a visa; holders of a of United States Refugee Travel Document do NOT need a visa to enter Belgium. (check with other Schengen countries is you do need a visa to enter)

Montenegro (30 days)
Slovakia
Hungary
 
Luxembourg may even be on the list just because of the Benelux agreement. I couldn't find any exact information, though. Either way, it's not likely that you'll fly into Luxembourg directly, and that anyone will even look at your passport there.

I've visited Australia on a RTD and again on a RP. They accept both. Once you send your application and supporting documents to their embassy in DC, they quickly turn it around with a visa in a week.
 
Hello Guys. Has anybody had any experience travelling to Aruba on a GC and RP? Was it a smooth entry into Aruba?
