European Union Settlement Scheme

If you are an EU, EEA or Swiss citizen, you and your family can apply to the EU Settlement Scheme to continue living in the UK after 30 June 2021. If your application is successful, you will be awarded either ‘settled’ or ‘pre-settled’ status. It is very important to bear in mind that you will also need to make an application for your child(ren) if they are not UK citizens.

You may be able to stay in the UK without applying - for example, if you are an Irish citizen or have indefinite leave to remain (also known as ‘permanent residency’).

The deadline for applying is 30 June 2021. To apply for settled or pre-settled status, you will need to make your application online at https://www.gov.uk/settled-status-eu-citizens-families/applying-for-settled-status
