The UK government has recently introduced several updates to the Immigration Rules, affecting asylum applicants, visitors, and certain visa categories. These changes reflect a broader shift toward tighter immigration controls and revised settlement pathways.

Key points include:
* Applications are submitted through the official UK ETA mobile app
* The application fee is £16 per person
* Most applications are processed within minutes
Travellers are advised to apply at least three working days before departure in case additional checks are required.
Airlines and other carriers will verify that passengers hold a valid ETA or eVisa before boarding.
British and Irish citizens are exempt from this requirement. Dual British citizens should travel with a valid British passport or Certificate of Entitlement to avoid boarding issues.
