The UK government is taking major steps towards delivering its ambitious aim to digitise the UK border and immigration system and has today set out new implementation dates for the electronic travel authorisation (ETA) scheme.
UK government are confirming that from 27 November 2024, eligible non-Europeans including US and Japanese passport holders will be able to apply for an ETA online and will need an ETA to travel from 8 January 2025.
ETAs are digitally linked to a traveller’s passport and ensure more robust security checks are carried out before people begin their journey to the UK, helping to prevent abuse of UK’s immigration system.
An ETA costs £10 and permits multiple journeys to the UK for stays of up to 6 months at a time over 2 years or until the holder’s passport expires – whichever is sooner.
