Both the future independent Scotland and the United Kingdom of England and Wales would presumably be constituent nations of the European Union.

"Independence in Europe" has been a policy of the SNP for a long time. Interestingly enough the relevant page on their site still has:

"The SNP believes that Independence in Europe is the logical next step for Scotland to take on its road to becoming a normal, democratic, European nation, just like Denmark, Ireland or Luxembourg."

Note that I'm not anti-EU at all - quite the opposite.
