ETIAS Permit: Key Facts for UK Travelers

UK tourists require an ETIAS digital travel permit for visa-free entry to 30 European countries starting in the last quarter of 2026. Travelers apply online, submit personal and biometric details, and pay a small fee around €7; approvals link electronically to passports and last three years or until expiry. Most applications process in minutes to days, but apply early to avoid delays during peak seasons.
