Agreement with Switzerland

The UK has signed an agreement with Switzerland duplicating expatriate rights aspects of the rejected Brexit deal. It guarantees the rights of British people there, whether or not there is a Brexit deal.

It has also agreed a similar deal with the EEA/Efta countries, ie. Iceland, Liechten颅stein and Norway.

A DExEU Brexit Ministry spokesman said the guarantee for Britons in Switzerland was possible because the deal is much simpler than the main withdrawal deal (no 鈥榙ivorce payment鈥�, no questions over the Northern Ireland border etc).

The UK has made a 鈥渧erbal agreement鈥� to maintain citizens鈥� rights aspects with EEA/Efta, but it is more complex because that deal contains extra items linked to the main Brexit deal, such as on judicial cooperation.

As for Britons in the EU, DExEU says it is encouraged by French promises to protect Britons鈥� rights if there is reciprocity, as it says it intends to 鈥済uarantee protection of EU citizens in the UK, ensuring residency and several other rights鈥�.
