Re: Passports, new rules post brexit.

I keep mine up to date in order to avoid hassle from the Border Force jobsworths, if nothing else.

Re: The big question...

One prospective purchaser of my property was apparently dissuaded by the neighbour's four dogs, so the estate agent told me.

Bear in mind though that the absence of dogs in the immediate vicinity...

Re: How to get German Citizenship and retain British Citizenship

What SanDiegogirl said. The rules are what they are, the exceptions are unlikely to apply to your wife, and it's surprising that she didn't apply whilst the UK was in the EU and everything was much...

Re: How to get German Citizenship and retain British Citizenship

Paulaner,

According to my information, the British authorities currently charge people £372 for renouncing their British citizenship. If your wife were unable to afford this and also had very good...

Re: Property purchase post Brexit

I don't think this is EU-related. I had no difficulty buying a property in Hungary before it joined the EU; I wasn't even living there. I had to get permission from the municipality, but that's...

Re: Frozen in time.

Sure, but what we all really want to know is whether they tried to move the property boundary.

Re: Frozen in time.

That's exactly what the estate agent said!



Funnily enough, the occupants of the temeto were my neighbours on one side. Well, sort of. My house was the last house on the left (yes, as in Last...

Re: Frozen in time.

Genuine natural bio Hungarian honey? A colony of bees squatted in mine; the shutter wouldn't open after that, and I never managed to get it fixed before selling the house.

Re: Anyone driven UK < -- > Hungary recently?

You betcha. No way you'll get into the UK without showing your papers, and if you're not British and the border guards don't like what you tell them, you might even end up in the cells for a few days.

Re: Driving UK-Germany recently?

I would read "Aufenthaltsort" in this context as "place where you are staying".

Re: Moving to NL from UK post Brexit

Screwed up? :huh: It's not a bug, it's a feature. Shutting down migration between the UK and mainland Europe isn't a side-effect of Brexit, it was one of the main reasons why people voted for it.

Again, this is from the government's own guidance document:

By my understanding a 49cc Derbi Senda (unmodified) would be a Class AM vehicle. According to this site, in Hungary Class AM vehicles can be ridden by anyone aged over 14, even without a license:
