Visa-free stays involving paid activity in the Schengen Area - how do they work?
score:3
Accepted answer
The Wikipedia article lists three relevant sources on the subject:
A spreadsheet from the official EU website which indeed lists numerous exemptions for certain Annex II citizens. However there are no references to any national laws that would back up this information.
A page on the website of the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs which does indeed specify exemptions for citizens of certain countries:
Exempt from visa requirement for France’s territory in Europe are:
...
nationals of the following countries, whatever the reason for their stay ...
nationals of the following countries: Australia, Brazil, United States, Japan, Mexico, Singapore, South Korea, Venezuela. If you are gainfully employed, the exemption only applies if you can produce a work permit;
From this we can conclude that outside of the 8 specifically mentioned countries, all other Annex II nationals may be employed visa-free.
- A page on the website of the Swiss State Secretariat for Migration. However neither that page nor the FAQ on work permits list any exemptions for citizens of Annex II countries.
My conclusion is therefore that the only country where it's possible to work without a work permit is France, at least from the sources I could find.
