Frequently Asked Questions
What is the UK ETA?
Toggle faqs
The UK ETA (Electronic Travel Authorisation) is a digital entry requirement for travellers visiting the United Kingdom without a visa. It's linked electronically to your passport.
How long does ETA approval take?
Toggle faqs
Most applications are approved within minutes. With our Priority Service, your ETA is guaranteed to be approved in under an hour. However, it's recommended to apply at least 3 days before your intended departure to avoid any travel delays.
Who needs a UK ETA?
Toggle faqs
Citizens from visa-exempt countries must obtain an ETA before travelling to the UK for short visits, including tourism, business, or transit.
Can I apply for multiple travellers?
Toggle faqs
Yes, you can submit applications for family members or companions, provided all personal details are accurate and documents are valid.
What if the airline doesn't detect my ETA during online check-in?
Toggle faqs
This is a known issue. If your ETA has been approved but the airline isn't recognising it during online check-in, go to the passport details section, re-enter your information (without changing anything) and save. This forces a system refresh and usually resolves the issue immediately. Our support team can also walk you through it step by step.
Will I receive an official document once my ETA is approved?
Toggle faqs
Yes. We'll send you a confirmation email with all your approval details, ready to save or print. Unlike the government channel, which only sends a plain email with no attachment, we make sure you have something concrete in hand before you reach the airport.
Do I need to bring a physical document to the airport?
Toggle faqs
Your ETA is electronically linked to your passport, so in most cases the airline verifies it automatically during check-in. That said, we recommend keeping your approval confirmation as a backup.
