The tourism organisation’s European marketing team has created a video with up to date information for EU citizens planning to travel to Scotland before and after October 31st. brexit video

The video, created in six languages, covers some of the most frequently asked questions regarding travelling to the country post-Brexit, with helpful advice showing the differences whether the UK leaves with or without a deal.

The national tourism organization’s film gives tips on everything from passport and border control, visas, and driving licenses to customs tariffs and travel insurance. It will be hosted on VisitScotland.com from September 3rd.

Following feedback from the tourism industry and their concerns that there was a lack of concrete information about post-Brexit travel, VisitScotland wanted to create an informative video to counter these concerns.

Both tourists and business travellers to Scotland will find informative advice as well as links for more information on specific issues, and the film will be updated as the situation evolves in the lead up to Brexit.

Judy Mariëns, 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 traveling 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 ten key tourism markets, with 1.6 million EU residents visiting the country in 2017, generating £956 million to our economy. The video will be produced in French, German, Italian, Dutch, and Spanish alongside English to be as accessible as possible to all European markets. brexit video
