{{a|eu|}}The [[European Economic Area]] ('''[[EEA]]''') is ''not'' the EU, but something rather close to it, comprising all the members of the EU and those of the [[European Free Trade Association]] (ummm except {{t|Switzerland}} — go figure), who are broadly bound by all EU regulations that are marked “[[text with EEA relevance]]” even though they have no say in the creation of those regulations. | |||
{{eeacountries}} | |||
The {{tag|EEA}} allows them to be part of the {{tag|EU}}’s [[single market]]. | |||
{{tag|Switzerland}} is neither an {{tag|EU}} or {{tag|EEA}} member but is part of the {{tag|single market}} - this means Swiss nationals have the same rights to live and work in the UK as other {{tag|EEA}} nationals. Switzerland, and die Schweitzeren, occasionally count as EEA members, as it does in some obscure Air Transport Regulation. | |||
