(2) Artikel 22 van Verordening (EG) nr. 810/2009 van het Europese Parlement en de Raad van 13 juli 2009 tot vaststelling van een gemeenschappelijke visumcode (hierna: \"de visumcode\" genoemd) [2] houdt een wijziging in van de huidige voorschriften die van toepassing zijn ingeval een lidstaat de centrale autoriteiten van andere lidstaten heeft verzocht om zijn centrale autoriteiten te raadplegen bij het onderzoeken van aanvragen van onderdanen van bepaalde derde landen of specifieke categorieën onderdanen van die landen. De technische specificaties van het Schengenraadplegingsnetwerk moeten dienovereenkomstig worden gewijzigd. (3) Krachtens artikel 31 van de visumcode kan een lidstaat, behoudens voor luchthaventransitvisa, verlangen dat zijn centrale autoriteiten in kennis worden gesteld van visa die door andere lidstaten worden afgegeven aan onderdanen van bepaalde derde landen of specifieke categorieën onderdanen van die landen. (4) Om deze informatie te kunnen doorzenden, moet er een nieuw formulier in het Schengenraadplegingsnetwerk worden gecreëerd. (5) Met ingang van de datum van toepassing van de visumcode zal het visum voor verblijf van lange duur, dat tegelijkertijd geldig is als visum voor verblijf van korte duur (type \"D + C\") worden afgeschaft, en zal het transitvisum (type \"B\") worden samengevoegd met het visum voor verblijf van korte duur (type \"C\"). (6) De technische specificaties van het Schengenraadplegingsnetwerk moeten dienovereenkomstig gewijzigd worden en met ingang van de datum van toepassing van de visumcode ingaan. (7) Overeenkomstig de artikelen 1 en 2 van het Protocol nr. 22 betreffende de positie van Denemarken, dat is gehecht aan het Verdrag betreffende de Europese Unie en het Verdrag betreffende de werking van de Europese Unie, neemt Denemarken niet deel aan de vaststelling van deze beschikking en is het hierdoor niet gebonden, noch onderworpen aan de toepassing ervan. Aangezien deze beschikking voortbouwt op het Schengenacquis, beslist Denemarken, overeenkomstig artikel 4 van het bovengenoemd protocol, binnen een termijn van zes maanden nadat de Raad een besluit over deze beschikking heeft genomen, of het deze in zijn nationale wetgeving zal omzetten. (8) Wat IJsland en Noorwegen betreft, vormt deze beschikking een ontwikkeling van de bepalingen van het Schengenacquis als bedoeld in de Overeenkomst tussen de Raad van de Europese Unie, de Republiek IJsland en het Koninkrijk Noorwegen inzake de wijze waarop IJsland en Noorwegen worden betrokken bij de uitvoering, de toepassing en de ontwikkeling van het Schengenacquis [3], die vallen onder artikel 1, punt A, van Besluit 1999/437/EG van de Raad van 17 mei 1999 inzake bepaalde toepassingsbepalingen van die overeenkomst [4].

(11) Deze beschikking vormt een ontwikkeling van de bepalingen van het Schengenacquis waaraan het Verenigd Koninkrijk niet deelneemt, overeenkomstig Besluit 2000/365/EG van de Raad van 29 mei 2000 betreffende het verzoek van het Verenigd Koninkrijk van Groot Brittannië en Noord-Ierland deel te mogen nemen aan enkele van de bepalingen van het Schengenacquis [8]; het Verenigd Koninkrijk neemt derhalve niet deel aan de vaststelling van deze beschikking en is hieraan niet gebonden, noch onderworpen aan de toepassing ervan.
