FAQs - Travel documents for EU nationals
I'm Portuguese and I am going to Cyprus this summer for holidays. Can I use my driving licence as an ID document at the border?
NO - A driving licence isn't a travel document. You'll need a valid national identity card or passport.
In what circumstances can I, as an EU national, be refused entry into another EU country?
You can be refused entry into another European country if you present a serious threat to public policy, public security or public health. The authorities must prove you or your family members pose a "genuine, present and sufficiently serious threat". You are entitled to receive this decision in writing, stating all the grounds, and specifying how you can appeal and by when.
What can I do if my right to enter another EU country is refused at the point of entry?
If your right to enter another EU country is refused, you should contact the embassy or consulate of your own country in the country you want to enter.
