European Union Settlement Scheme

The European Union Settlement Scheme is a program that allows EU, EEA, and Swiss citizens living in the UK to continue residing, working, and accessing services after Brexit. It requires eligible individuals to register and obtain either settled status (indefinite leave) or pre-settled status (temporary leave), safeguarding their rights in the UK. The scheme ensures a smooth transition by confirming lawful residence, and applications are generally straightforward, especially for those with continuous residence before the deadline. It’s an essential process to protect the rights of EU nationals in the UK post-Brexit.
