Europe ETIAS Travel Authorization Online

ETIAS is the mandatory electronic pre-travel authorization system established by the European Union for citizens of over 60 visa-exempt countries (including the United Kingdom, United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, and South Korea) traveling to 30 participating European countries (the 29 Schengen Area states plus Cyprus). Once granted, an ETIAS is valid for 3 years or until your passport expires, permitting multiple stays of up to 90 days within any 180-day period.

Under Article 6 of the Schengen Borders Code, your passport must satisfy two strict rules simultaneously: first, it must have been issued less than 10 years before your date of entry into Europe (extra months added beyond 10 years upon renewal are not recognized); second, it must remain valid for at least 3 months after your intended date of departure from the 30 ETIAS countries.

No. Every visa-exempt traveler—including infants, children under 18, and seniors over 70—must hold an approved ETIAS authorization in their own passport prior to boarding a flight, ferry, or Eurostar train to the European Union. While applicants under 18 and over 70 are exempt from the EUR 20 EU government fee, completing and receiving the approved ETIAS registration remains strictly mandatory.

No commercial agency or third-party facilitator can guarantee ETIAS approval. Authorization decisions are determined solely by the ETIAS Central System (operated by eu-LISA) and the ETIAS National Units of EU member states. NomadicMart is an independent private application service not affiliated with the European Union or travel-europe.europa.eu. We review your passport and security declarations for accuracy prior to submission.

On your ETIAS application, you must declare the first participating European country you intend to enter. Once your ETIAS is approved and linked to your passport, it is valid for travel across all 30 participating European countries for 3 years, and you may visit other Schengen states on subsequent trips provided you respect the 90/180-day rule.
