Brexit: the gift that keeps on giving.

It’s a €7 visa charge which I think is a one off payment, starting next May.

Renew every 3 yrs, if we have to supply finger prints that will be a pain

we brought our own demise.. but latest figures show that 59% of people now wish to rejoin the EU... though I rather suspect that they would make it very difficult now

As far as I am aware the payment is only for 3 years, then you pay again, by then the cost would have probably increased!

As OP says, why do some people express surprise. It was what the Brexiters voted for! Restricted freedom of movement applies both ways.

I think I read over 70's will have to apply for the Visa but not pay?

The EU are bringing in strict new entry rules whereby (instead of simply having your passport stamped) individuals will have to supply fingerprints etc. The apps which allow application in advance are apparently not going to be ready in time. All this means that we Brits are going to have to queue along with all the other plebs if we intend to travel to the EU.

What rules are you referring to OP?

Why are the papers full of surprise, shock horror, that british passport holders will be expected to follow the rules for travelling into europe? What did they think would happen when they chose to leave the EU. They chose to become outsiders and now winge about the effects of their choice. When you chose to leave the gang , you are not part of the group any more , and are treated accordingly. Do the British still think they have some right to be treated in some "special" category?
