Regarding the rest, it's a “more-or-less” unilateral implementation… but not quite given the rather peculiar decision I quoted. As I said, it's all academic but certainly not obvious one way or the other so I don't think discussing that in the answer would be helpful. | |

The situation with Romania, Bulgaria and Croatia is more or less a unilateral implementation of parts of the Schengen agreement. As a step towards joining the Schengen area as full members, the countries momentarily accept travellers with visa from other Schengen countries without expecting that other Schengen countries must accept travellers with e.g. a Croatian national visa. | |
| Oct 13, 2014 at 18:17 | comment | added | Relaxed | Note that even though Bulgaria, Romania, Cyprus and Croatia are not yet fully part of the Schengen area, my understanding is that they are bound by most of the law about it (Schengen acquis), which might be why it was deemed necessary to issue a decision to explicitly allow them to do something non-EU states can obviously do on their own whenever and however they want. | |
| Oct 13, 2014 at 17:40 | comment | added | Relaxed | @Tor-EinarJarnbjo It's a purely academic distinction in this case and I wrote “in the Schengen area […] also be used” to side-step the issue but in fact I am not sure your interpretation is correct with respect to Bulgaria, Romania, Cyprus, and Croatia. See eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/PDF/… and in particular article 2(3). | |
| Oct 13, 2014 at 17:33 | comment | added | Tor-Einar Jarnbjo | Just to clarify: A type D visa is only equivalent to a residence permit within the Schengen area. If other countries choose to allow entry for holders of any of these documents, they may of course just accept one of them and not necessarily deem both documents to be of equivalent value or significance. | |
