After the implementation of the Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) in April of 2025, a new update will take effect on 25 February, 2026.

From this date, entry into the United Kingdom will not be permitted without a valid ETA.

In addition, as a carrier we are legally obliged to deny boarding to any driver who does not hold a valid ETA. Drivers who arrive at check-in without a valid ETA will not be permitted to travel.
