<p>Employers already need to carry out right to work checks on EU citizens, as they
do with all prospective employees to prevent illegal working. The statutory code of
practice and published guidance for employers are clear that EU citizens can evidence
their right to work by showing a passport or national identity card, and employers
should continue to refer to these documents.</p><p>EU nationals may also use Home
Office residence documentation as evidence of their right to work, but they are not
currently required to do so. Even in the unlikely event of a no deal situation, this
position will not change next March. We will publish a White Paper on the future immigration
system later in the autumn.</p>
