How the EU travel ban will work, according to the official communication: "Travel restrictions should focus on drastically reducing incoming people flows at the external borders of the Union, thereby also slowing transmission to other countries on travellers’ return
"...and discouraging outgoing travel of EU citizens and other persons residing in the EU+ area.
"The 'EU+ area' should include all Schengen Member States (including Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus and Romania), as well as the four Schengen Associated States. It would also include Ireland and the United Kingdom if they decide to align."
"UK nationals are still to be treated in the same way as EU citizens until end 2020"
"Ireland and the United Kingdom, taking into account the Common Travel Area, are encouraged to also implement this temporary travel restriction."
So, it's a ban on non-essential travel to the Schengen Area, incorporating the four "Schengen Associated States" Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland, with Ireland and the UK encouraged to align with the ban due to the Common Travel Area
Will provide further clarifications/corrections in due course
