Antiguans and Barbudans Will Need an ETA to Travel to the UK From January 8 2025
The Ministry wishes to inform all Antigua and Barbuda passport holders of new immigration control policies introduced by UK Border Control authorities in accordance with the United Kingdom’s transition to the fully digitized Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) system.
In this connection, careful adherence to the following information is advised:
The UK is introducing Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) for nationals who do not need a visa to visit the Country for less than six months.
‘For eligible non-European passengers, applications for ETAs will open from 27 November 2024, and they will need an ETA to travel to the UK starting 8 January 2025.
For eligible European passengers, applications will open on 5 March 2025, and they will need an ETA to travel to the UK starting 2 April 2025.
More information on eligibility for ETAs and how to apply can be found on the official UK Government website www.gov.u k/electronic,travel-authorisation.
