Travel document requirement
Regarding the entry requirements for Annex II nationals, I have deleted the requirement to 'have a machine-readable passport with digital photo or a biometric passport'. I cannot find any reference to this in Article 6 of the Schengen Borders Code, nor in the Practical Handbook for Border Guards in Part II, Section I, Point 3.1. Article 6(1)(a) simply states that a third-country national has to possess a 'valid travel document' that was issued no more than 10 years ago and is valid for at least 3 months beyond the intended date of departure. If, however, I have missed the reference to this requirement, please feel free to reverse my edit. Thanks. Bonus bon (talk) 09:56, 13 April 2020 (UTC)
