Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about the UK Electronic Travel Authorization.

A UK ETA is a digital travel authorization that allows eligible travelers to visit the United Kingdom for tourism, business, or transit purposes without a visa. It is electronically linked to your passport and valid for multiple entries over a 2-year period or until your passport expires, whichever comes first.
Starting from April 2, 2025, all visa-exempt foreign nationals traveling to the UK will need an ETA. This includes citizens from countries like the United States, Canada, Australia, Japan, and EU member states. UK and Irish citizens are exempt from this requirement.
Most applications are processed within 3 working days. However, we recommend applying at least one week before your planned travel date to allow time for any additional verification that may be required.
The UK ETA costs £66, which includes the government fee of £16 plus our service fee of £50 for processing and support. Payment can be made securely using credit or debit cards.
Once approved, your UK ETA is valid for 2 years or until your passport expires, whichever comes first. During this period, you can make multiple trips to the UK for stays of up to 6 months at a time without reapplying.
Each traveler must have their own individual ETA, including children. However, you can complete separate applications for family members or group members using our service.
If your ETA application is refused, you will receive a notification explaining the reason. Depending on the reason for refusal, you may be able to reapply or you might need to apply for a standard visitor visa instead. Our customer support team can provide guidance on next steps.
No, you don't need to print your UK ETA as it is electronically linked to your passport. However, we recommend keeping a digital copy of your approval confirmation email for your records.
