By April 2025, all travellers who do not currently need a visa will require an ETA to travel to the UK.
The Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) is a new requirement that grants permission to travel to the UK from 2025. This applies to all international travellers wishing to visit or transit through England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. You will need an ETA to visit Northern Ireland, whether you are arriving directly or via the Republic of Ireland.
All international travellers, including children and babies need an ETA. Irish and British citizens are exempt.
The ETA is valid for two years, and allows multiple visits of up to six months per trip. The fastest way to apply is using the UK ETA app, available on the Apple Store and Google Play.
To avoid delays and disruptions, please apply for your ETA well in advance of your departure. It’s quick, affordable, and can be done online.
