Tue, 14 Aug 2018. Email from GoDaddy: Brexit is coming, and it brings changes to .eu domains like (mydomain).eu "Now that the UK has voted to withdraw from the European Union, the registry for .eu domains (EURid) has decided to revoke domains registered to UK residents, and prevent them from purchasing new ones. In light of this decision we will no longer offer .eu domains to UK residents. EURid may act as early as March 30, 2019, but the deadline might shift as Brexit negotiations continue. You still have options, though. You can either update your registrant address to one outside the UK, or replace your .eu domains with another option."

Then on Tue, 27 Nov 2018: "In 2016, the United Kingdom voted to withdraw from the European Union. Soon new .eu registrations will be restricted to any natural person, company or organization residing in or established in the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein or Norway. This means that customers in the UK will no longer be able to register new .eu domains. Plus, .eu domains that are currently registered to UK addresses will be revoked. These changes may take effect as early as March 30, 2019, but the deadline could shift as Brexit negotiations continue. In light of these new policies, we're no longer offering .eu domains to UK residents. We also urge UK residents with .eu domains to consider their options: either update your registrant information to an .eu-compliant address or replace any .eu domains with other available options. "
