<p>The Government has discussed mobility arrangements across a number of areas as
part of negotiations on our future relationship with the EU.</p><p>The EU has already
legislated such that UK nationals will not need a visa when travelling to the Schengen
area for short stays of up to 90 days in any 180-day period. This will apply from
the end of the transition period to all UK nationals travelling to and within the
Schengen area for purposes such as tourism.</p><p>This is the standard length of stay
that the EU provides to the nationals of eligible third countries that offer visa-free
travel access for EU citizens, in line with existing EU legislation.</p><p>As things
stand, stays beyond the EU's 90/180 day visa-free allocation from 1 January 2021 onwards
will be for individual Member States to decide and implement through domestic entry
rules and visa arrangements for non-EU citizens. UK nationals will need to discuss
the specifics of their situation with the relevant Member State authorities and should
be prepared to provide any extra documentation that may be required.</p>
