Saudis to Enjoy ETA Visa for UK Travel Starting February 22

Starting from Thursday, 22nd February, Saudi Arabian citizens traveling to the UK will experience a significant change. The UK will introduce the ETA system, replacing the “EVW” visa. This move streamlines the travel process, providing Saudi travelers with a more efficient and hassle-free entry into the UK.

Features of the “ETA”

The “ETA” visa comes with notable advantages. It is valid for two years and allows multiple entries during its validity period. This flexibility is ideal for Saudi citizens who travel frequently for leisure, business, or short-term studies. The ease of re-entry without the need for multiple visas is a significant benefit, making the “ETA” an attractive option for regular travelers.

Nominal Visa Fee

The fee for the new visa is set at a nominal rate of 10 British Pounds. This cost-effective measure is designed to encourage travel and strengthen ties between Saudi Arabia and the UK. The minimal fee ensures that the visa is accessible to a broad spectrum of travelers, from tourists to business professionals.

Versatile Use of the ETA Visa

The “ETA” visa caters to various travel purposes, including tourism, business, short-term study, and medical treatment. This versatility makes it a convenient option for Saudi citizens with diverse travel needs. Whether it’s a short business trip, a leisurely holiday, a brief educational course, or a medical visit, the “ETA” accommodates all these needs under a single, streamlined visa category.

Last week, the Government of Gambia has officially announced a visa-free entry policy for Saudi Arabian nationals. This policy sets to enhance bilateral ties and promote cultural exchange. It also underscores Gambia’s commitment to fostering an open atmosphere for tourists. This development also impacts travel dynamics between the two nations. This offers Saudis a seamless gateway to explore the vibrant culture and scenic landscapes of Gambia.
