UK nationals entering the Schengen area again during this period will only need to provide a fingerprint or photo at border control, when entering and exiting, rather than having their passport stamped.<\/p>\n<p>The rollout is expected to take 180 days and will be fully operational by Thursday 9 April 2026.<\/p>\n<p>EES has been designed to improve border security within the EU and neighbouring countries.<\/p>\n<p>It is hoped that it will help countries within the Schengen area identify suspected criminals and combat identity fraud.<\/p>\n<p>It is also hoped it will reduce illegal immigration and help the EU stop visitors from overstaying by automating border control checks.\u200b<\/p>\n<p>Currently, non-EU nationals visiting the Schengen area must ensure their total stay is no more than 90 days in a 180-day period.<\/p>\n<p>People travelling from the UK will not need to do anything before their journey, but will need to take into account potential delays at border control.<\/p>\n<p>The Government encourages all passengers to check the full travel advice for their destination and ensure they have their medication and water to hand in case they need to queue for a long period.<\/p>\n<p>Cruise ship journeys starting and ending at UK ports are exempt from the EES rules unless passengers disembark to continue their holiday within the Schengen area.<\/p>\n<p>There is a small list of other exceptions for UK nationals, which can be found on the EES website.<\/p>\n<p>Full list of affected countries:<\/p>\n<p>Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Subscribe to ITV News on YouTube: http:\/\/bit.ly\/2lOHmNj<br \/>\n\u2022 Get breaking news and more stories at http:\/\/www.itv.com\/news<\/p>\n<p>Follow ITV News on TikTok https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@itvnews?lang=en<br \/>\nFollow ITV News on Instagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/itvnews\/<br \/>\nFollow ITV News on Facebook: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/itvnews\/<br \/>\nFollow ITV News on X: https:\/\/twitter.com\/itvnews<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>British passport holders face changes at border control across Europe over the coming months.
