ONEZ 9 Schengen Area

Schengen Area

The Schengen Area is a group of 29 European countries that have agreed to remove border controls between them. This means people can travel freely across most of Europe without passport checks. The area also follows a common visa policy for visitors from outside Europe. Most Schengen countries are part of the European Union, and some small countries like Monaco, San Marino, Andorra, and Vatican City, while not official members, have open borders with Schengen countries and follow the same rules in practice.
