For UK citizens, we are providing information on travelling to the EU after exit. All information is available online on the Government's dedicated website: gov.uk/euexit.

We keep our travel advice pages up-to-date with the latest information about individual countries. People can subscribe to these pages to be kept informed about any changes. We are also providing information to UK passport holders regarding the potential change in validity rules to the Schengen zone in a no deal scenario. People are encouraged to check their passport's validity using a free checker tool on the gov.uk website. Information for EU citizens in the UK is also available on gov.uk/euexit.

A campaign and extensive engagement is underway to give people the information they need. We are engaging extensively with stakeholders to distribute travel advice through their customer communication channels.
