Costs as Spain, France, Greece and Portugal to charge UK tourists to enter

British holidaymakers will soon have to pay to enter European countries as part of a new scheme now the UK has left the EU.

The fee will be paid for a new electronic travel permit that has been introduced to enhance the security and enforce the borders of the Schengen zone. The new visa waiver is expected to be valid for three years and allow unlimited entries into the EU.

Travellers from the UK will also need to complete an online application form to obtain their ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorisation System). The application form should not take longer than 10 minutes to complete.
