Risks & important considerations
Separate residence stage
A D7 residence visa does not automatically issue a residence permit. The applicant must complete the appropriate residence-authorisation process.
Current means
The authority may require updated evidence that you can support yourself. Documents from the original visa may no longer reflect the situation.
Address and identity
Residence details, passports and supporting documents must be consistent. Clarify any changes since the consular application.
