In Europe (actually, pretty much everywhere except the US), aeronautical information is published in the ... wait for it... Aeronautical Information Publication (AIP). Such AIPs are sometimes divided into IFR and VFR.

Most European IFR AIPs are available from the European AIS Database. You need to register but it's free. The AIPs have summaries of the applicable flight rules (in particular differences from ICAO standards) in the ENR and GEN sections.

AIPs are also available online.

The UK AIP includes VFR and IFR, as does France and Belgium. Germany does not publish its VFR AIP free online (shame on you DFS!).
