What kind of derogations from thorough border checks do you benefit from as a non-EU national being granted access to a national facilitation programme?

If you have been granted access to a national facilitation programme, the passport control officers in the respective territory may not need to verify:

• Your point of departure and destination
• The purpose of your intended stay and the corresponding supporting documents, if necessary
• Whether you possess sufficient means of subsistence for the duration and purpose of your intended stay, your return to the country of origin, or transit to a third country (or whether you are able to acquire such means lawfully).
