So what does this deal mean for you?
I was going to post the official UK Government release but having spent hours working through it, it hard to follow and deadly boring so I have checked the link above against the Government link.
Two issues significant to us lot are:-
UK EHIC All UK EHIC cards issued before the end of 2020 will be valid – but only until their expiry dates. After that, the UK will issue a new card called the UK Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC), but there are no further details yet on how to obtain it or from when it will be available.
Internationai Permits For UK Driving Licences and Green Cards. The UK Mission to the EU said last night that those with a driving licence issued in the UK would not need to use an International Drivers Permit in the EU, as had previously been thought likely. An international driving permit is available at the Post Office for £5.50. You also need a car insurance green card which acts as proof that you are insured in the UK through your provider, which can take up to six weeks.
No doubt, loads more in the UK Government release, which we can add as it becomes apparent.
For any who want it the link to the Government Release:- Agreements reached between the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the European Union .
