UK Ditches Visa Stickers for Digital eVisas in 2026
February 20, 2026·13 days ago·via Travel And Tour World
The UK phases out all physical visa stickers by 2026, mandating eVisas from February 25 for visitor visa holders, stored digitally in UKVI accounts tied to passports. Carriers verify permissions instantly at check-in, streamlining travel, cutting document loss risks, and boosting fraud prevention through secure online records. Applicants attend visa centers once for identity checks, then access eVisas via email instructions without passport drops or vignettes.
