When the UK leaves the EU on 31 October 2019, free movement as it currently stands will end. Musicians will need to check if they need a visa or work permit and meet any requirements for their profession to work in the EU country they\u2019re visiting.<\/p>

Our cultural and creative sectors are one of the UK\u2019s greatest success stories. We will ensure that these sectors continue to thrive and that collaboration with our European partners continues to flourish beyond our exit from the EU.<\/p>
<\/strong><\/p> My department benefits from, and greatly appreciates, the expertise and research carried out by trade organisations and umbrella bodies, like the Incorporated Society of Musicians.<\/p> <\/strong><\/p> Journeys and routes around the EU are varied and unique to each musician. As such it is not possible to calculate a single accumulated cost.<\/p> <\/strong><\/p> However, we have engaged extensively with the cultural sector, and understand the diverse circumstances of companies, organisations and individual practitioners and how they may need to adapt as we leave the EU. These include changes for visas, social security and movement of equipment, including instruments when moving around the EU. We are working with other colleagues across government to ensure these are factored into our preparations and future negotiations.<\/p> <\/p>"}
