"The framework of travel documents, firstly, enables border control authorities to verify whether a given document is recognised for the purposes of crossing the external borders and, secondly, enables consular staff to verify whether all the Member States applying the common visa policy recognise a given travel document for the purpose of affixing the visa sticker.
There is a need to adapt the current framework to the EU’s new institutional and legal framework. The fact that the Member States are not obliged to indicate whether or not they recognise each of the documents included on the list creates legal uncertainty, so holders of these travel documents run the risk that their entry will be refused or that they will be granted a visa for a limited area. It is not possible to harmonise recognition of the listed travel documents as this is an exclusive competence of the Member States, but the continuous updating of the list must be ensured.
I support the creation of a mechanism that ensures the constant updating of the list of travel documents that countries issue, and the introduction of a centralised mechanism for technical evaluation of these documents. It should also be ensured that all the Member States express their position on whether or not they recognise the travel documents listed."@en1
