Visas & ETAs
VISA’s
Should you require a VISA, we have an ‘Invitation’ letter that we can scan to you. This will include details of our certification and your child’s stay. We will need to have received a scanned copy of your child’s passport so we can include the relevant details. If you require, we can also courier this document to you for an additional charge.
Most of our children / students who need a VISA arrive to the UK on a Standard Visitor VISA. Feel free to consult us if you have any questions. However, we are not able to advise on the VISA application process and recommend that you consult the UK Government Website or your local UK embassy.
ETA’s
Many visitors from visa-free countries must now apply for an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) before entering the UK. Check the UK Government website for a full list of eligible nationalities.
It is recommended to apply at least one week before travelling to the UK to avoid delays. You can apply online or via a mobile app.
