The rules for travelling to Europe have changed for UK citizens, so there are a few extra things you need to take with you on holiday. The first thing you need to bring is a valid UK passport. You should also bring your GHIC (or your EHIC if it is still valid). This will provide you with reduced cost or free state healthcare in most European countries. In some countries you may need a visa if you're planning a longer trip. You can check GOV.uk for further information. If you plan to drive, you will need to bring a valid UK driving license with you. You typically don't need an international driving permit to drive in EU countries. Finally, while it's not essential, it's a good idea to bring a copy of your travel insurance documents with you, including the contact information of your provider. This will help you make a claim if you need to and remind you of what your policy will cover.
