2025 International Symposium

London, England

Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA)

Starting on January 8, 2025, US citizens, as well as visitors from Australia and Canada visiting the UK will need electronic travel authorization (even for layovers). While most applications are approved on the same day, it can take up to 72 hours. Once granted, ETAs are digitally linked to a traveler's passport and allow for stays of up to six months at a time. The ETA is valid for two years or until your passport expires (whichever comes first). The UK ETA will cost 10 pounds (roughly $13 USD).

To apply for an ETA, you will need a valid passport, a recent digital headshot that follows the UK's passport photo requirements, an email address, details of your travel plans, as well as a valid debit/credit card to pay the application fees.
