UK ETA at a glance

Processing time

Usually from a few minutes up to 3 business days — most ETAs are approved very quickly.

Validity

Up to 2 years from approval, or until your passport expires — whichever comes first.

Multiple entries

One ETA covers multiple short trips to the UK (up to 6 months each) while it's valid.

When to apply

Before you travel to the UK — don't leave it until you're at the airport.

How to apply

100% online. The official application goes through the UK government's system.

At the border

Your ETA is linked to your passport. Travel with the same passport you applied with.

What you'll need

  • A valid US passport (the one you'll travel with)
  • A photo of your passport's data page
  • A selfie of your face
  • Your name exactly as printed on your passport
  • Your home address and email
