VisitScotland launches post-Brexit video for EU citizens
VisitScotland has released a video for Europeans to ensure they aren’t put off visiting Scotland because of uncertainty and misinformation around Brexit.
It includes up to date information for EU citizens planning to travel to Scotland both before and after the UK is due to leave the Union on October 31.
The video, created in six languages, covers some of the most frequently asked questions regarding travelling to the country post-Brexit with advice showing the differences whether the UK leaves with or without a deal.
The national tourism organisation’s film gives tips on everything from passport and border control, visas and driving licenses to customs tariffs and travel insurance.
It can be found on VisitScotland.com.
Judy Mariens, senior market manager for Europe at VisitScotland, said: "Our European visitors are incredibly important to us, so it is important we help them stay as informed as possible before they visit Scotland after Brexit.
"We feel this video will help visitors with some of the key updates in travelling here so they can plan appropriately, however one thing that definitely won’t change is the warm Scottish welcome."
Europe provides six out of Scotland’s 10 key tourism markets with 1.6 million EU residents visiting the country in 2017, generating £956 million to its economy.
The video is available in French, German, Italian, Dutch and Spanish as well as English.
