May 12, 2017 at 22:08 comment added phoog @PaulPraet so it would seem, as long as the UK continues to participate in the freedom of movement regime, which seems like it won't be for much longer.
May 12, 2017 at 20:59 comment added Paul Praet OK. So when my wife and I go to the UK, she only needs to bring her Belgian ID card and some proof of our marriage ?
May 12, 2017 at 20:38 comment added phoog @PaulPraet because the directive does not concern family members of EU citizens living in their own countries. These come under national law. See service.berlin.de/dienstleistung/305289 about family "von Deutschen oder Ausländern" (of Germans and foreigners) vs service.berlin.de/dienstleistung/326235/concerning "von Bürgern der EU (außer Deutschland) und des EWR" (of citizens of the EU (except Germany) and the EEA). (Italy and Spain and, I guess, Belgium, at least, choose to extend these rights to their citizens' families, but many countries, including Germany, do not.)
May 12, 2017 at 20:32 comment added Paul Praet Why wouldn't the spouse have such a card ? I am a Belgian national living together with my Chinese wife in Belgium. Her Belgian ID card clearly mentions she is 'a relative of a EU citizen'.

May 12, 2017 at 19:23 comment added phoog @PaulPraet it's not my example; it's the UK government's example. In any event, I don't see what is confusing about it; a non-EEA spouse of a German living in Germany normally won't have an article 10 or 20 residence card. Without one, such a person needs an EEA family permit to travel to the UK under freedom of movement with the German citizen.
May 12, 2017 at 19:10 comment added Paul Praet The example is confusing. I would expect the non-EEA spouse of the German national living in German NOT needing to have a UK EEA family permit.
