UK Issues Only E-Visas From Feb. 25, 2026

February 20, 2026·about 1 month ago·via News18

The UK fully transitions to digital immigration from February 25, 2026, issuing e-visas exclusively to visitor visa nationals and phasing out all physical visa stickers, BRP cards, and vignettes. Travelers access their status via a UKVI account linked to their passport, enabling airlines to verify details in real time for smoother boarding. This modernizes border checks, boosts security, and simplifies sharing status for work or housing through a share code.
