We welcome the EU’s confirmation that it will grant UK nationals visa-free access for short-term visits, subject to reciprocity. This means that, after the end of the transition period, UK business visitors and tourists will not need a visa when travelling to the Schengen area for short stays of up to 90 days in every 180-day period.
