Frequently Asked Questions

UK Visa & ETA Visa — Common Questions

What is a UK Visa or ETA Visa — and what's the difference?

A UK Visa is the traditional entry permit issued by the UK Home Office, usually requiring an embassy visit. The ETA Visa (Electronic Travel Authorisation) is the modern digital replacement for eligible nationalities — applied for entirely online in minutes. For short stays of up to 186 days, most eligible travelers will use the ETA Visa instead of a traditional UK Visa.

Do I need a Visa for England specifically, or does the ETA cover the whole UK?

A single UK ETA serves as your visa for England and all other UK nations — Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland are all covered. You don't need a separate visa for England; the UK ETA authorization is country-wide. It's valid at all UK entry points regardless of which nation you're entering.

What do I need for UK entry from 2025?

For UK entry from January 2025, eligible nationals need: (1) a valid passport, (2) an approved ETA linked electronically to that passport, and (3) sufficient funds for the stay. The ETA must be obtained before you travel — airlines check it at check-in. Without a valid ETA you may be denied boarding even with a valid passport.

How quickly can I get my ETA Visa?

Your ETA Visa can be approved in as little as 1 hour with our Super Rush service. Rush processing takes 4 hours and Standard takes 24 hours. We recommend applying at least 72 hours before your planned UK entry date to allow time for any additional checks by UK Home Office systems.

How long is the UK ETA / ETA Visa valid?

The ETA Visa is valid for 2 years from the issue date, or until your passport expires — whichever comes first. During that period you can make unlimited UK entry trips with stays of up to 186 days per visit. There is no limit on the number of entries.

Can I apply for a Visa for England for my whole family at once?

Yes. You can apply for visa for England (UK ETA) for up to 10 travelers in one submission using the “Number of applicants” selector at the top of the form. Each traveler receives their own ETA Visa linked to their individual passport. This is the easiest way to handle group UK entry for families or travel groups.

Is my UK Visa application data and payment secure?

Yes. All UK Visa application data is protected with 256-bit SSL encryption in transit and AES-256 encryption at rest. Our servers hold ISO 27001, SOC 1, and SOC 2 certifications. Payments are PCI-DSS compliant. We are fully GDPR compliant and never sell your personal data to third parties.
