Guatemalan passport holders: what to know before requesting a UK ETA

UK ETA for Guatemala Nationals

Visitors travelling to the United Kingdom on a Guatemala passport must have an ETA, a rule in force since 8 January 2025. It is an electronic record rather than a document, and it is requested through an online form.

For this service the price is $60 in US dollars with Regular Processing (3 working days) or $90 with Express Processing (12-36 hours). You pay once per traveler, so group bookings should allow for each person's separate fee.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which purposes does the ETA cover?

Tourism, visiting friends and relatives, business trips, short-term study and transit through a UK airport are the main ones.

Can I work remotely for my own employer while visiting?

The ETA does not allow you to work for a UK company or be self-employed in the UK. Check the current rules for your situation before travelling.

Does the 2-year period restart each visit?

No. The 2 years run from the date the ETA is granted, or until your passport expires if that is sooner.

Can I claim benefits while in the UK?

No. Visitors on an ETA cannot claim public funds.
