Visa-free travel proposed for UK nationals after Brexit

EU ambassadors have agreed British citizens should be able to go on holiday to Europe without a visa after the UK leaves the European Union.

Proposals that would mean Britons do not require a visa for short visits to the EU after Brexit, even in the event of no deal, are a step closer to being rubber-stamped.

EU ambassadors have agreed that UK citizens coming to the Schengen area for stays of up to 90 days in any 180-day period should be granted visa-free travel.
