UK ETA, filled in and filed correctly the first time
UK Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) — we fill it in and submit it for you, to reduce the mistakes that cause delays.
Who needs this
Israeli passport holders need an ETA to enter the UK, as well as Jersey, Guernsey, and the Isle of Man — for tourism, visiting family, business, or transit. The ETA isn't a visa: it's a lighter-weight travel authorization, tied to your passport, valid for 2 years or until your passport expires (whichever is sooner), and lets you travel as many times as you like during that period, each stay up to 6 months.
What's included
- We complete and submit the official ETA application for you on the UK's portal.
- A real person checks your details and photos before submission — a wrong detail or a bad photo is the most common cause of delay.
- We handle the photo (selfie) and passport-scan requirements to the official specification.
- You get your approved ETA by email, linked to your passport.
- Processing time
- Usually within 1 day, up to 3 working days. There is no way to expedite processing — including on other sites that claim otherwise
- Validity
- 2 years from approval or until your passport expires (whichever is sooner), each stay up to 6 months
- Passport validity requirement
- The ETA is tied to the specific passport used to apply and stops being valid when that passport expires — apply with a passport that has long validity remaining

United Kingdom FAQ
Is this a visa?
No — the ETA is a travel authorization, lighter than a visa. gov.uk is explicit about this distinction, and we keep the same distinction throughout our site.
Can I speed up processing for an extra fee?
No. There is no official expedited service for the ETA — any site offering 'faster issuance' for an extra government fee isn't being accurate. The standard time (usually 1 day, up to 3 working days) is all there is.
How many trips can I take on one ETA?
As many as you like, as long as the ETA is valid (up to 2 years, or until your passport expires) — each individual stay up to 6 months.
