EUSS Family Permit. Spouse of a Swiss citizen. Marriage on or after 1 January 2021
You may be granted an EU Settlement Scheme Family Permit if you are the spouse (husband or wife) of a Swiss citizen who has been granted settled or pre-settled status in the UK, if your marriage was contracted on or after 1 January 2021 and before 1 January 2026, and if your marriage continues to exist at the date of application.
Your spouse must have been resident in the UK before 31 December 2020 and must have been granted settled or pre-settled status on this basis. Their settled or pre-settled status must not have lapsed or been cancelled, curtailed, revoked or invalidated. You must provide in your application for an EUSS Family Permit the reference number of the application made by your spouse for settled or pre-settled status (a 16-digit number).
You must not be a British citizen. You may be Swiss, EEA (a citizen of a Member State of the European Union, or a citizen of Norway, Iceland, or Liechtenstein), or a non-EEA citizen. If you are a Swiss or EEA citizen, you can apply directly for pre-settled status from outside the UK, without applying for an EUSS Family Permit first.
You must apply for pre-settled status within 3 months of your arrival in the UK if you wish to remain in the UK after the expiry date of your EUSS Family Permit.
