Advice for Brits living in France after the referendum

[Fred]

The British government has introduced a new website giving advice for British nationals travelling and living in Europe, following the result of the EU referendum.

You may want to bookmark it for future updates.

The negotiations to leave the EU may take up to 2 years or more. The government has made clear that we want the legal rights of British nationals living in European countries, as well as EU nationals in the UK, to be properly protected.

In the interim there will be no immediate changes. During the period of the negotiations, the UK remains a full member, entitled to all the benefits and obligations of membership of the EU.

British nationals retain their legal status as EU citizens and can continue to work and live in EU countries.

British nationals can continue to receive healthcare in EU countries.

British nationals can continue to retire and collect their pensions in EU countries.

British nationals can continue to travel freely within the EU using a UK passport.

There will continue to be no visa requirements for British nationals entering another EU country.

British nationals can continue to access healthcare during temporary visits to EU countries using the European Health Insurance Card.

Thanks Fred,
A useful site. It's impossible to know what the final outcome will be so it's good to have an official source, if only as a riposte to some of the nonsensical outpourings on other sites.
