The UK’s Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) scheme is now in operation – but currently only for visitors from Qatar. The government describes it as “a new requirement for people who do not need a visa to come to the UK”. It will be needed even for those who are “airside” at Heathrow for two hours between international flights. Citizens of Qatar have needed one from 15 November. From 22 February 2024, passport holders from Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, Oman, Saudi Arabia and the UAE will need one to arrive in the UK.
