United Kingdom (UK) Elecronic Travel Authoriztion "ETA"
New for 2025!
Required for all US Passport holders starting January 2025
A UK ETA stands for "Electronic Travel Authorization," which is a digital permission required by most non-European travelers to visit the United Kingdom for short stays, even if they don't normally need a visa; essentially, it acts as a pre-travel check to enter the country, similar to the US ESTA system.

European Union (EU) Elecronic Travel Authoriztion "EITAS"
New for 2025!
Required for all US Passport holders starting January 2025
ETIAS travel authorisation is an entry requirement for visa-exempt nationals travelling to any of these 30 European countries. It is linked to a traveller’s passport. It is valid for up to three years or until the passport expires, whichever comes first. If you get a new passport, you need to get a new ETIAS travel authorisation.
With a valid ETIAS travel authorisation, you can enter the territory of these European countries as often as you want for short-term stays - normally for up to 90 days in any 180-day period. However, it does not guarantee entry. When you arrive, a border guard will ask to see your passport and other documents and verify that you meet the entry conditions.
