Regulation (EC) No 810/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 July 2009 establishing a Community Code on Visas (Visa Code) · European Union
(4) Member States should be present or represented for visa purposes in all third countries whose nationals are subject to visa requirements.
