OPTIONS VISA-FREE REGIME Sample Clauses

OPTIONS VISA-FREE REGIME. The installation of a visa-free regime between the EU and a third country is not a simple thing, as it demands the abolishment of visa requirements. The fact whether nationals of a certain third county are required to apply for a visa to enter the EU, depends on the relevant Annexes of Regulation 539/2001. The most logic way to proceed is through an amendment of that regulation. This is also recognised by the Commission, stating that ‘[t]he most effective visa facilitation, of course, is the waiving of the visa requirement for citizens of a third country by transferring third countries from the negative list into the positive list attached to Reg. 539/2001’.463 The criteria to assess whether a country is ready to be transferred from the blacklist to the whitelist have already been mentioned above.464 The criteria are however not exhaustive, leaving a wide margin of discretion to the EU and its Member States to do the actual shift between the lists. The Commission is however of the opinion that also the economic impact should be taken into account for future visa liberalisation, stressing the possible economic impact for tourism.465 Until today, this cannot be found in the preamble of Regulation 539/2001. Despite the effectiveness of introducing visa-free travel through the amendment of Regulation 539/2001, this is probably not the way how the visa-free travel between the EU and Russia will be accomplished. The Common Steps state that abolishment of the visa obligation will be the result of a visa waiver agreement.466 This allows to limit the visa waiver to holder of biometric passports only. Such an agreement between the EU and Russia would not be the first agreement the EU concludes on the visa waiver: it has already concluded such agreements with Antigua and Barbuda467, the Bahamas468, Barbados469 , Brazil470, Mauritius471, Saint Kitts an Nevis472 and the Seychelles.473 Also Russia has experience with such 463 COM (2012) 649 final, 5. 464 Text to n 198 in ch II.
