The UK adds Nicaragua and St. Lucia to its visa national list effective March 5, 2026, removing them from the Electronic Travel Authorisation scheme. Nationals from these countries now require a visit or transit visa before traveling to or through the UK, a shift aimed at tightening immigration controls amid rising asylum claims and concerns over St. Lucia's citizenship-by-investment program.
