Could my Fiancee and I live in the EU?

[sars_notd_virus]

I was reading about someone who had a Filipino Wife and they moved to Germany and to get a residence card all he did was show his marriage certificate, passport and one or two other documents and that was it. Is that true? ?

I dont think so, Germany is very rigid with their immigration and residency regulations.

Like in many other European countries, citizens from the EEA (EU plus Iceland, Norway and Lichtenstein) and Switzerland are free to live and work in Germany. The only requirement is to register with the appropriate office of the town hall in their local area (usually called Einwohnermedeamt or Bürgeramt). An exception to this applies to Romanian and Bulgarian nationals who require a residence/work permit to work in Germany.

Once a citizen from these countries has lived in Germany lawfully for five years without interruption they will gain the right of permanent residence. This five-year period also applies to the family members and spouses of EU citizens.
