The deadline for UK is 2012, but if you are implimenting a new site it is better to go down this type of route.

That bulletin only applies to VISA, Inc., not VISA Europe which is separate company that licenses the VISA brand. I don't believe VISA Europe has announced a PA-DSS compliance deadline yet but I'm not certain. I couldn't find anything on it on their web site.
