Description

The UK ETA app lets you apply for an electronic travel authorisation (ETA) to come to the UK.

Who can use the app
Find out who can apply at: https://www.gov.uk/electronic-travel-authorisation. You can apply for someone else if they are with you.

If you are applying for someone else and they are not with you, apply online: https://www.gov.uk/electronic-travel-authorisation.


How it works
1. Take a photo of your passport.
2. If your passport has a chip and your phone can make contactless payments, access the chip in your passport using your phone.
3. Scan your face using the camera on your phone.
4. Take a photo of yourself.
5. Answer questions about yourself.
6. Pay for your application.
