New Entry Requirement for Travel To and Transit Through the United Kingdom:
Starting January 8, 2025, visitors from the U.S. and many other countries will be required to have a UK Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) to enter or transit through the UK. The ETA costs £10 and is valid for two years or until the passport used to obtain the ETA expires. Travelers from the US and many other countries can begin to apply for the ETA online or through the UK ETA app starting November 27, 2024. While approvals are predicted to be within three days or faster, students are advised to apply at least three weeks in advance of planned travel in case of processing delays.
