UK's New ETA Rule Aussies Must Know

The UK enforces Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) for Australians and other non-visa nationals starting February 25, 2026, barring entry without it. Aussies previously entering visa-free now need a £16 ETA, valid for two years or passport expiry, allowing multiple six-month trips for tourism or business. Airlines prevent boarding without valid ETA, eVisa, or British passport, with dual nationals required to use British passports.
