It is enough to fill in the questionnaire on a specially created site, which will open soon (the European Commission has reserved the address http:\/\/etias.eu\/ for it, but it can still change). <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrgate.com\/eng\/?p=7459\">Interestingly<\/a>, the EU officially allows authorization on behalf of others &#8211; for example, children can help older parents, or the employer can take care of employees who are sent on business trips.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Read also:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ukrgate.com\/eng\/?p=7791\">Interactive Guide &amp;#8220;School in a Pandemic for Leaders and Teachers of Schools and Vocational Schools!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><em>Source: Ukrgate<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The European Union has taken a step towards introducing new visa-free rules.
