<p>In a deal scenario, UK nationals and EU citizens will be able to travel to each
others’ countries as now for the duration of an implementation period. We have said
that we want to see visa-free arrangements for short term business visits as part
of the future relationship, and will discuss how to facilitate the temporary mobility
of self-employed professionals and employees providing services. The detail of this
will be discussed in the next phase of negotiations.</p><p>The EU has confirmed that
it will grant UK nationals visa-free travel to the EU for short stays after exit,
even in a no deal scenario. This includes travel for purposes such as attending business
meetings. Member States may require a visa if UK nationals intend to work and so UK
nationals planning to undertake paid work in the EU should check with the Embassy
of the countries they plan to travel to for what kind of visa or permit, if any, they
will need. Further information can also be found on the FCO’s <a href="https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice"

target="_blank">advice pages for UK businesses</a> on gov.uk.</p><p>On 5 September
2019, to provide certainty to businesses, HMG announced in a policy paper that in
the event of a no deal exit, EU citizens coming to the UK will be able to visit and
work as they do now (meaning they will not require a visa in advance of their arrival
in the UK). The policy paper can be accessed at GOV.UK via this <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/no-deal-immigration-arrangements-for-eu-citizens-moving-to-the-uk-after-brexit#future-immigration-system"
