Aug 7, 2022 at 13:19 comment added phoog Anyway the article 10 and/or article 20 issue is only of academic interest here since it seems fairly well established that the spouse's residence in this case is most probably not in fact governed by the free movement directive.
Aug 7, 2022 at 9:14 comment added Mark Johnson @phoog For the present day issued cards, there are 2 fields for the 'title of the document': 3.1: at the top with the main national language (in France:*carte de séjour*) and 3.2 at the bottom with up to 2 official languages of EU institutions (in France: residence permit). Both can also contain permanent. For Art. 10/20, permit should be replaced with card Regulation (EU) 2019/1157, Article 7(2). Most countries use an english version somewhere (ch, iceland do not).
Aug 6, 2022 at 20:21 comment added phoog As @MarkJohnson notes, EU law maintains a distinction between residence cards and residence permits because the card is evidence of a right that flows from the treaty and certain facts whereas a permit is a document that itself confers a right of residence or at least is evidence that a country's authorities have granted such a right. This distinction may be difficult to maintain in some languages, at least in French where a residence permit has long been known as a carte de séjour.

Aug 6, 2022 at 16:12 comment added xngtng @MarkJohnson Thanks, I will edit the language to be less confusing.
Aug 6, 2022 at 14:45 comment added Mark Johnson To be clear "a residence card under national legislation" has residence permit printed at the bottom. An Article 10/20 card has residence card printed instead. Nowadays both are plastic cards.
Aug 6, 2022 at 13:04 comment added badjohn Thanks. I was struggling to figure out the implications but that has helped a lot. The key to figuring is out is "a residence card under national legislation". That is a subtlety that I had missed.
