ELECTRONIC TRAVEL AUTHORISATION VISA COST ANNOUNCED (June 2023)

On 7 June 2023, the Home Office updated its Link to Guidance and Fact Sheets to confirm the price of the  Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) confirming that the cost of the ETA will be £10 per applicant.

An ETA is a new requirement for people who need a visa for short stays to the UK, or who do not already have a UK immigration status prior to travelling. It gives the person permission to travel to the UK, and it is electronically linked to their passport. It will permit multiple journeys and be valid for two years or until the holder’s passport expires – whichever is sooner.​​

It will launch for Quatari nationals from 25 October 2023. From 1 February 2024, the scheme will be introduced for nationals of Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, Oman, United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia.
