Visas: Spain
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what discussions she has had with her Spanish counterpart on the potential mutual benefits of short term visa free travel for the purposes of tourism.
- Answer
-
EEA and Swiss nationals will be able to continue to travel to the UK for holidays or short-term trips as they do now, without needing a visa.
The EU has also announced that UK nationals would be able to enter the EU visa-free for short periods after the country’s exit, provided EU nationals enjoy the same conditions when travelling to the UK.
Both these arrangements apply whether we leave the EU with or without a deal.
