EU Entry/Exit and the UK border

Inquiry

The European Union’s (EU) proposals to introduce a new Entry/Exit System to replace manual passport stamping will usher in a new way of handling people leaving the UK to holiday in the Schengen Area.

 What potential do the proposals have to cause disruption at the border?

 If there is any, what could mitigate any potential problems?

 And what impact could this have for tourists to the continent?

 We’re calling for views for our new inquiry. To submit evidence and find out more, click below.

 

The Committee agreed the inquiry terms of reference and launch date on 25 October 2023.

This inquiry is no longer accepting evidence

The deadline for submissions was Friday 12 January 2024.
