Warning for Brits overstaying in EU
South Wales Echo
|October 08, 2025
UK NATIONALS exceeding post-Brexit limits on how long they can spend in the EU have been warned they will be “automatically detected” through a new border system coming into force this week.
-
Travel trade organisation Abta claims enforcement of the limit of 90 days in a 180-day period has previously been widely ignored. It warns that this will change with the EU’s Entry Exit System (EES) - which launches on Sunday - as it will automatically alert border officials when someone has overstayed.
Currently, a case would generally only come to light following an inspection of each stamp inside an individual's passport.
Fines for overstaying vary by country, but can reach the equivalent of thousands of pounds.
The length of stay requirement covers the Schengen area, which consists of most of the EU and some other European nations.
