British citizens may have to apply for visas totravel to Europe after the UK leaves the EU,according to reports.

A scheme apparently being debated by the
European Commission suggests the 26-nation
passport-free Schengen zone, which does not
include the UK, could operate a visa programme
similar to the US waiver.

Currently UK passport holders can travel
throughout member states without having to
apply for short-term visas.
But Britain's decision to leave the EU has left
question marks over the criteria needed for UK
nationals to visit the Schengen zone.
