✈️ Important Update for British Travelers: Changes Under the New ETIAS ✈️

⭐ Did you know that UK citizens travelling to the EU next summer will have to pay a €7 visa-waiver charge after the EU revealed its timeline for the introduction of new border checks and entry requirements for some visitors.

⭐ The European Travel Information and Authorisation System (Etias) will require UK citizens (and those from other visa-exempt countries such as the US, Australia and Canada) to apply for a waiver before entering the Schengen area (which includes 25 EU member states, as well as Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland). The waiver will last for three years or until your passport expires.

⭐ This is likely to come into force by May 2025.

Don't worry, when you're booking with a travel professional like myself, we'll make sure you have everything in place when you need it.
