Now that the UK has left the EU, there will be new rules from 1 January 2021. Read about how these new rules will affect citizens, businesses and travel to the EU.
The UK left the EU on 31 January and has been in a transition period which will end on 31 December 2020. The transition period was agreed to allow the UK and the EU to agree a deal on their future relationship.
During this period the majority of the current EU rules and trading arrangements remain in place with no significant changes in most areas. However, the end of the transition period is fast approaching and this will mean changes to the current rules on trading, as will the right to travel without visas to other EU countries.
