Summary

A temporary or permanent non-asylum residence permit may be withdrawn from a third-country national in all the responding countries on the basis of issues of public order that have been identified in another EU/EFTA member country, except in the case of Estonia. In most of the responding countries the caveats are related to whether the public order issues in the other member country would also be an issue in the member country in question, the nature of the issue, whether there is a risk that a similar issue would arise in this country, as well as the length of residence in and the strength of other links to the country.
