What is an ETA?

Not a visa. Not a stamp. Just a quick online check before you fly.

ETA — Electronic Travel Authorization

A pre-travel permission that is linked electronically to your passport. No embassy visit required, no stamp, no interview. Required by countries like Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and Sri Lanka for passport holders who are normally visa-exempt.

ETA vs. eVisa vs. ETIAS

ETA — fast pre-clearance, approved in minutes to 72 hours, low fee.
eVisa — a full digital visa requiring more documentation and higher fees.
ETIAS — the EU's upcoming system (similar to an ETA) for visa-exempt travelers entering Europe.

Who Needs One?

Citizens of visa-exempt countries who still need electronic pre-clearance. For example, a UK passport holder flying to Canada needs an eTA even though no visa is required. Use the checker above to see exactly what your passport needs.

How to Get an ETA — 4 Simple Steps

Check in seconds

Enter your passport and destination in the tool above — you'll know instantly whether you need a visa, an ETA, or nothing at all.

Go straight to the source

We link you directly to your destination's official government portal — never a third-party reseller charging extra to click the same buttons.

Pay only the official fee

Every country prices its own ETA differently — and the rules shift year to year. You'll pay the exact government rate for your destination, never a cent more.

Get cleared for takeoff

Your approval lands in your inbox — often within minutes, sometimes a few days depending on the country. Then you're free to fly.

Always apply on the official government website to avoid third-party fees. Not sure where your destination's official site is? Run the checker and we'll point you straight to it.
