    New rules for foreigners wishing to travel to post-Brexit UK

    ETAs can be obtained from the Foreign Office's website and may vary depending on the applicant's nationality

    Starting Jan. 8, travelers who do not need a visa to enter post-Brexit UK for leisure will still be required to get an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) from the Foreign Office's website. This new permit allows foreign visitors to stay up to six months in the country as nonresidents (not allowed to work or study) and costs 10 pounds sterling.
