From 1st July there will be changes to Right to Rent Checks in England. These changes come as a result of Brexit, which has ended free movement between the UK and the EU. Previously EU, EEA & Swiss nationals only had to provide evidence of their nationality to gain an automatic right to rent in the UK, however now that the UK has left the EU, this automatic right has been abolished. On 1st January 2021, a grace period of six months began which allowed EU, EEA, Swiss citizens and their family members to apply to the EU Settlement Scheme. This period ended on 30th June 2021 and from then, all EEA & Swiss nationals need to provide evidence of their UK immigration status, rather than just their national identification, to be allowed the right to rent in the UK.
