Travel Note
The UK ETA is a new entry requirement for visitors from visa-exempt countries, including the US, Canada, and Australia, traveling to the UK, including Northern Ireland. It’s quick to apply for online and typically approved within 48-72 hours. An ETA is valid for multiple trips over two years or until your passport expires. Without it, you cannot board your flight, so apply early. Citizens of Ireland and the UK do not need an ETA.
