EuroBrits Iceland

The EuroBrits Iceland project helped UK nationals who moved to Iceland before 1 January 2021 with securing their residence status now that the UK has left the EU. The AIRE Centre implemented the EuroBrits Iceland project until the end of March 2021.

UK nationals who were legally residing in Iceland before 1 January 2021 do not have to abide by the 90 days in every 180 day period with respect to their residence in Iceland. However, they should apply for the new residence permits as soon as possible. 

If you are a UK national who moved to Iceland before the end of the year 2020, you can read our information sheets for more information on the procedure and documentation necessary for a successful application. 

Information Sheets

We have produced a series of information sheets designed to provide practical information to UK nationals seeking to secure their residence in Iceland. We want these sheets to be as helpful as possible and want to know if they have supported you in obtaining a residence permit or if they have assisted you to help someone else do so. Please help us to improve our service by giving us feedback on these resources HERE. 

NOTE that all of the following information sheets were accurate on 31 March 2021. We have not updated our information sheets since the end of the EuroBrits Iceland project.

1. UK nationals' right to reside in Iceland now that the UK has left the EU

2. What does the EFTA Separation Agreement mean for UK nationals in Iceland?

3. How can UK nationals living in Iceland secure their residence now that the UK has left the EU?

4. How can family members of UK nationals secure their residence in Iceland now that the UK has left the EU?

5. How can UK national students in Iceland secure their residence now that the UK has left the EU?

6. How does the residence status of UK nationals affect their healthcare rights in Iceland during the pandemic?

Events

The British Embassy in Reykjavik hosted the fourth #BritIce event on Thursday 17 September 2020. Ambassador Michael Nevin gave an update on what the end of the transition period will mean for the British community in Iceland followed by a Q&A session. Our Icelandic legal expert was on the panel and there to answer your questions on residence registration. 

You can find a recording of the event here
