Frequently Asked Questions - Brunei Travelers

Do I need a visa for a short visit?

Not if you hold a valid ETA and your trip is within what an ETA allows. An ETA covers visits of up to 6 months.

Can I enter the UK with only my passport?

No. You need the ETA as well, and you must travel on the passport named in it.

Can my family share one application?

One person can submit applications for others, but each traveler needs an ETA and pays the fee individually.

What if my passport is renewed?

Apply for a new ETA, because the old one is linked to the previous passport.

Does an ETA mean I will be admitted?

No. It is permission to travel, and border officers decide on arrival.

How do I choose between Regular and Express?

Regular is $60 and takes 3 working days. Express is $90 and takes 12-36 hours, which suits a short timeline.
