How to apply for ETIAS from the UK
The electronic application should take less than 20 minutes to complete and consists of several easy steps. The application will require data such as name, surname, maiden name, citizenship, residency address, contact details such as email and phone number, work experience, education and the destination country (or the first country of entry in Schengen zone). It will also include several background and eligibility questions for security purposes, such as the history of travel in warzones, medical history, drug use, etc. Usually, feedback is delivered within a matter of minutes. However, if something is wrong with the application, manual processing will take from 96 hours to 2 weeks. The ETIAS application will have a nominal fee, which must be paid after filling in the information. The payment can be made with a credit or debit card only. When the system detects a completed amount, the application will be processed.
