BREXIT – The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (UK) left the European Union (EU) on 31 January 2020 (so-called Brexit). Until 31 December 2020, a transition period was in place during which the Agreement on the Free Movement of Persons (AFMP) between the UK and Switzerland continued to apply. As of 1 January 2021, the AFMP will no longer apply to the UK. Instead, the agreement between Switzerland and the UK on citizens’ rights because of the UK's withdrawal from the EU and the discontinuation of the AFMP (Citizens’ Rights Agreement) and the Services Mobility Agreement (SMA) will come into force.
