EU Countries: Visas

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether he plans to issue guidance on EU visa waivers.

Answered by Stephen Doughty

Entry requirements for British nationals travelling to the EU are set out in the FCDO's travel advice pages on gov.uk. The guidance is based on information provided by the EU and its Member States. FCDO travel advice is regularly updated to reflect our latest understanding of these requirements, with links for further information provided within the travelling abroad pages on gov.uk. The new European Travel Information and Authorisation System (ETIAS) scheme is not a visa, and we continue to discuss its implementation with the European Commission and European Union Member States.
