The UK government is planning to keep travel visa-free to Britain for European Union (EU) visitors after Brexit. <br/><br/>A media report said today that under proposals being considered, if visitors from (EU) countries wanted to work, study or settle in the UK they would have to apply for permission under the proposals. <br/><br/>EU citizens are currently free to live and work in the UK without a permit as Britain is a member country of the 27-member economic bloc. <br/><br/>However, after the country ceases to be a member of the EU by March 2019, the UK Home Office says managing migration is about access to work and benefits as much as the ability to control entry at a physical border. <br/><br/>It would be up to the EU to decide whether the offer of visa-free travel – if it is formally proposed by the UK Brexit negotiating team – would be reciprocated.
