Starting
January 8, 2025, the United Kingdom will require all non-European
travelers to have an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) upon arrival
into the country. All visitors, including children, who do not have a
visa or other UK immigration status will need to present a completed ETA
when entering the region, even when just transiting through the UK.
Once an ETA is approved, travelers are permitted to visit the UK for up
to six months and take multiple trips through the country over the
course of two years (or until the traveler's passport expires, whichever
comes first).
WHAT DO TRAVELERS NEED TO APPLY FOR AN ETA?
- Pay a fee of £10
- Complete the online form through a downloadable phone app or web browser. Find 'UK ETA' through the app store on your phone/tablet, or visit their website. Here, you will be asked to 1. provide contact and passport details, 2. provide a valid photo that complies with the digital requirements, and 3. answer a set of questions.
Travelers
can start applying in advance, starting on November 27, 2024. The
application process is easy, and takes about 3 business days for
approval.
