Before you go

  • On a British passport you can visit visa-free for up to 90 days in any 180 across the Schengen area.
  • Your passport must have been issued less than 10 years before you arrive, and expire at least 3 months after you plan to leave.
  • The EU's Entry/Exit System is in use: on your first trip you'll be asked for fingerprints and a photo at the border. It's free, but allow extra time.
