The Schengen code. Amendments

asks:
Last year adopted amendments to the Schengen code. Whether has now sense to get residence permit in Latvia, if with him to stay on the territory of other Schengen countries 365 days a year? On the website of the Embassy of Latvia it is written that to live with him in the Schengen area for 90 days can for six months, and then welcome back. Who and how is in the Schengen countries control? Are there any rules for compulsory registration? How do they know how much I spend in the Schengen area, if I travel by car?

Good afternoon.

All clients skate / live in the Schengen area because it is convenient. Especially if you drove a car. You never heard that someone had a problem with it.

In Germany, for example (I think like the others. EU) is a "requirement" to register if the period of stay in the country will exceed 90 days. BUT (!!!), we have repeatedly consulted by German lawyers and the law does not specify any one punishment or any other consequences if you do not. Even if you fly in transit through / from Latvia (which is very convenient to the client's words). How much and in what country you are very difficult to fix.

LATVIA. The purchase procedure
Hello. I'm going to buy a room on the 1st floor of an apartment building in Riga. It was found out that the land under the building does not belong to the seller. The land on which the building is built, there are 6 owners. Buying this building, I will have to pay rent once a quarter. Explain please what are my risks with this purchase and how can I protect myself. For the first time I was confronted with the fact that the land belongs to private individuals. In advance thanks for the answer.
