Summary
This codecision file concerns a uniform format for visas and its security. The amendments revise recitals and provisions on the cited Council Regulation laying down the uniform visa format, the existing visa sticker being compromised by counterfeiting and fraud, transitional use of old stickers, and establishing a new common design with more modern security features to protect against forgery and misuse.
