Get your Visitor ETA

One very important thing to note is that as per 2025 travellers to the UK will need an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) before traveling. This is aimed mainly at  those on holiday. An ETA is a digital travel permission, not a visa, and is required for tourism, short stays and attending events.

ETA Application

  • Application is completed online

  • Processing time is usually fast

  • The ETA is digitally linked to your passport

  • You must apply before travelling


How to get an ETA

There is a UK Government App you can download onto your phone which guides you through the application for the ETA. The ETA itself only costs a small amount of money but you really need it! Is remains your responsibility to use this App and register yourself and any other passengers before take-off.

Do NOT use other websites. Here's a link to the official  UK GOV Website where you can see if an ETA is sufficient for the country you are traveling from.

Below are links to the Apps in the Apple Appstore and Google PlayStore. Follow these links from your phone to download the App directly.
