Your everyday rights as an EU citizen

This category is about the part of the EU you actually feel in daily life. Anyone holding the nationality of a member state is automatically an EU citizen – and that status comes with concrete, practical rights that many people use without thinking about them.

• Free movement: live, work, study or retire in any other EU country without a visa or work permit.
• Healthcare abroad: the European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) gives access to necessary public healthcare across the EU.
• Roam like at home: mobile calls and data within the EU cost the same as in your home country.
• Consumer protection: EU-wide rules on product warranties, air passenger rights and online purchase returns.
• Voting rights: vote and stand in local and European elections wherever you live in the EU.
• Easy payments: SEPA makes euro transfers across borders as simple as domestic ones.

The quiz questions in this category test how well you know these rights in practice – from what the EHIC actually covers to which rights apply when your flight is cancelled. Try the Living in the EU quiz and find your gaps.
