Europe without borders: What you should know about Schengen The Schengen area comprises of European countries that have abolished passport and all other types of border control at their mutual borders. The area mostly functions as a single jurisdiction for international travel purposes, with a common visa policy. The Schengen Agreement, which seeks to create a single European territory devoid of internal borders, was signed by five European Union member states – Belgium, Germany, France, Luxembourg and the Netherlands – on 14 June 1985. The treaty was named after Schengen, the small village in Luxembourg that is located on the point where its borders meet those of Germany and France where it was signed. The Schengen Agreement abolishes internal borders, checkpoints and controls, enabling passport-free movement between the signatory countries.

The 26 countries that are currently members of the Schengen Agreement are Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland. Twenty-two of these are EU members. Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Iceland and Norway are not members of the EU. So, they are officially known as the countries that are associated with the Schengen activities of the EU. Close-up page of passport with Schengen visa issued by a German diplomatic mission.

Apart from these countries, the Schengen area also includes the Caribbean islands that belong to France. There are six EU members that have not yet joined the Schengen Area: Ireland and United Kingdom negotiated opt-outs from the Agreement and Romania, Bulgaria, Croatia and Cyprus are required to and are seeking to join soon. The Schengen Agreement offers freedom of movement to some 400 million EU citizens, who can cross internal borders within the Schengen Area freely and without need to carry a passport. Non-EU citizens can obtain a Schengen visa that allows them to move freely within the Schengen area.

Avrupa Birliği üye ülkeleri arasında sınır kontrollerinin kaldırılmasını sağlayan Schengen Anlaşması, İtalya'da bu ay yapılacak G7 toplantıları öncesi güvenlik gerekçesiyle geçici olarak durduruldu. 11-13 Mayıs tarihleri arasında İtalya’nın Bari kentinde G7 ülkeleri Maliye Bakanları Toplantısı yapılacak. G7 üyesi ülkelerin liderleri de 26-27 Mayıs’ta, Sicilya adasının Taormina kentinde düzenlenecek zirvede bir araya gelecek. Bu toplantılar nedeniyle 10-30 Mayıs tarihleri arasında İtalya, Schengen Anlaşması hükümlerini uygulamayacak. Bu da, Schengen bölgesi dahil Avrupa ülkelerinden İtalya’ya girişlerde normalde yapılmayan sınır ve gümrük kontrollerinin 20 gün boyunca uygulanacağı anlamına geliyor. İtalyan Ulusal Sivil Havacılık Kurumu (Enac), bu tarihler arasında seyahat edecek yolcuları yanlarında geçerli belgelerini bulundurmaları yönünde uyardı. QHA
