Travellers applying for a UK Electronic Travel Authorisation should prepare their passport before beginning the online process. The passport requirements for UK ETA include providing a clear image of the passport information page, with all four corners visible and details easy to read. Applicants must enter their full name, passport number, nationality and expiry date accurately. The passport used for the application must also be presented when travelling to the United Kingdom. An approved ETA is electronically linked to that passport and cannot be transferred to a replacement document. If you receive a new passport, you must apply for a new ETA. Checking your passport information carefully before submission can help avoid mistakes and make travel preparation easier.
