International Travel
If the Withdrawal Act is ratified, then UK Citizens will be able to continue to travel to the EU states on the current conditions until the end of December 2020.
In the event of no deal, points to consider for travel to EU/ EEA are:
- Passports: Guidance is that UK passports should be no older than 9 years and 6 months on the day of travel.
- Visas: Both the EU and UK have announced the intention to continue visa free travel for short trips to the EU.
- Driving licences: An International Driving Permit may be required.
- Vehicle Insurance: A Green Card may be required.
- EHIC cards: Access to reciprocal healthcare using EHIC cards may not be available.
Driving in the UK
EU and EEA driving licence holders will not require an International Driving Permit and can continue to use an EU/ EEA car or motorcycle licence for up to 3 years after becoming resident or until the age of 70.
