Best practices for last minute ETA UK applications
If you are applying for an urgent ETA UK, planning carefully – even at the last minute – can make a major difference. Before starting your application, check that:
- Your passport will be valid for at least 6 months after your trip has ended
- You have correctly entered your passport number and expiry date
- There are no discrepancies between your passport and your ETA form
Small mistakes can slow down checks in UK Immigration systems, even when you use an express service.
When you add your email address, you’re recommended to choose an account you can access easily from your phone. Remember to monitor your inbox, including spam and junk folders, for updates as soon as they come in.
Though our Priority Processing services have high approval rates, we still recommend waiting until you have received a decision from the UK Home Office to make your travel plans.
