On temporary entry for business purposes (mode 4), a reciprocal agreement based on best precedent will mean that UK citizens will be able to undertake some business activities in the EU without a work permit, on a short-term basis. The same would apply for EU citizens making business visits to the UK. The precise details, including range of activities, documentation needed, and the time limit, will be negotiated.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Maldon answering member printed Mr John Whittingdale question first answered 20/05/2020 12:01:41 answering member 39 label Biography information for Sir John Whittingdale
