BRITS will have to pay €7 (£6) if they want to go on holiday in the EU after Brexit.

The plans on cross-border travel were signed off by EU ambassadors yesterday - sparking anger among Brits.

The scheme would apply to all visitors to the 26-nation Schengen zone from countries that do not require a visa to enter.

It's similar to the US ESTA scheme in which people visiting from countries that do not need full visas have to apply online for permission to travel at a cost of $14 (£10).

Brits hit back at the news by claiming that Britain should start charging EU citizens a similar fee for holidays in the UK.

A Twitter user who goes by the name @Luffup said: "The UK should ensure that visa charges are reciprocated for EU citizens after Brexit."

Currently, as EU citizens but not part of the Schengen, Brits have to show a passport to get in but can then travel freely within it.

As well as paying a €7 fee, Brits going on holiday to places such as Spain and France would also have to provide personal details and information about where they have recently travelled to, as well as any criminal history.

Much like the American ESTAs, Brits would have to apply for the visa online before travelling to the EU and a background check would be performed before it was approved.

The visa would then be valid for three years.

£6 isn't that much tbf and the visa last for three years. I was expecting this since brexit

That's a rip-off.

Not only do we absolutely NOT charge ANYONE for coming here - we PAY them.
