US EditionDeal to Let Brits Skip EU Passport Queues Would Have Happened without Post-Brexit Accord
- The UK Government struck a deal with the EU in May 2025 allowing more British travellers to use e-gates at European airports, reducing passport queue times.
- This agreement follows six months of negotiations aimed at addressing post-Brexit travel issues, notably the limitation of e-gate use to a few airports in Spain and Portugal.
- The agreement also includes the launch of pet passports, which will simplify travel for UK cats and dogs by removing the requirement for health certificates on each journey.
- Travel industry leaders described the deal as a significant improvement, with Tim Alderslade calling it “excellent news for British holidaymakers” and Julia Lo Bue-Said deeming it a “tremendous relief.”
- The agreement aims to streamline UK-EU travel and trade, potentially boosting the economy and marking a new chapter in UK-EU relations post-Brexit.
