United Kingdom

Destinations

This country will always be special for us and our second home! We have lived in London for about 7 years.

United Kingdom is formed by England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland. Most people goes directly to London, but there are many beautiful places in all over the country. We specially loved Scotland.

Definitely a must visit country with so many beautiful places, stunning landscapes, lots of culture & traditions, and places that looks like they’re from storybooks or movies. Plus, is the perfect country for any Harry Potter fans!

Important to know

From April 2, 2025, an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) will be mandatory for entry to the United Kingdom.

This authorization is mandatory for all international visitors who do not currently require a short-stay visa. An ETA is not required for transit passengers stopping over at a UK airport, provided they do not go through border control.

The fee is 16 GBP per application.

This travel authorization allows multiple trips to the United Kingdom for stays of up to 6 months each, within a period of 2 years or until the holder’s passport expires.

Travelers must use the same passport used for the ETA application.

You can apply for an ETA on the official government website.
