The United Kingdom

Brexitdeal: The EU and the UK have reached an agreement on a new partnership. From 1 January 2021, new rules will apply when doing business with the UK. Citizens will also notice changes. Are you travelling (for essential purposes) from/to the Netherlands or the UK? Different and more in-depth customs rules and controls will apply.

Dutch companies are advised to contact the Brexitloket via www.brexit-loket.nl (+31 880 425 200).
British and international companies can contact Invest in Holland (+44) (0) 207 590 3286).

With the end of the Brexit transition period on 31 December 2020, EU rules and regulations will no longer apply to the United Kingdom.

As per 1 January 2021 the Covid-19 EU entry ban for travelers from non-EU/EEA and non-Schengen countries will therefore also apply for British nationals from the United Kingdom. As a result, British nationals from the United Kingdom will not be permitted entry to the Netherlands for non-essential purposes.

The Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in the United Kingdom provides services to Dutch nationals who live, work, travel or do business in the United Kingdom.
