Apply for Schengen ETIAS

ETIAS is currently not in operation and no applications are collected at this point. 

As the European Union continues to enhance its border security measures, a new visa requirement known as the European Travel Information and Authorization System (ETIAS) is set to take effect in May 2025. This significant development will impact some 1.4 billion travellers from approximately 60 countries who plan to visit any of the 30 European Union (EU) member states. Apply for an ETIAS with Global Law with our easy to complete form, expert checking service and live feedback to ensure you secure your ETIAS without delay leaving you to look forward to your trip without the need to worry about any additional red-tape.

What is Schengen ETIAS ?

ETIAS is European Travel Information and Authorisation System. designed as a pre-travel authorization system, similar to the United States’ Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA). Its primary objective is to strengthen internal security within the Schengen Zone—a group of European countries that have abolished passport and other types of border control at their mutual borders. The system will help EU authorities assess the eligibility of travellers prior to their arrival, allowing for a more efficient screening process. We have listed the 30 countries below that will require the ETIAS

Who Needs European Travel Information and Authorisation System?

Nationals of 60 countries currently exempt from the Schengen visa requirement will need to apply for ETIAS before arriving in Europe. These countries include destinations such as the United States, Canada, Australia, Japan, and several others. This implies that while visitors from these nations will not need a visa for short stays (up to 90 days), they must obtain ETIAS authorization to enter the Schengen Area. The European Travel Information and Authorisation System will last for 3 years or until your Passport expires. The European Travel Information and Authorisation System is linked to a traveller’s passport so if you change your passport because it is lost or expired, you will need to make a new application.

The Application Process

1. The application for ETIAS will be straightforward and user-friendly, aimed at allowing travellers to process their travel authorization with ease. Travelers can complete the application online on the Global Law platform in just a few minutes. The process will require basic personal information, travel details, and the payment of a nominal fee. Once submitted, most applications will receive a response within minutes, although some may take up to 4 days for additional processing, especially if further checks are needed. Global Law will offer expert checking and live feedback during the application process should any issues arise. It also to be noted that travellers should make their application for an ETIAS well in time for their planned travel dates. The European Travel Information and Authorisation System will allow you to stay in the Schengen Area for 90 days within a 180-day period. 

Why is Schengen ETIAS Being Implemented?

1. The introduction of ETIAS is part of the EU’s broader efforts to enhance security, as it aims to better control and monitor those entering its borders. The move is a response to increasing concerns regarding irregular immigration and terrorism, allowing for a more robust system to prevent individuals who may pose a risk from entering the EU. By requiring ETIAS authorization, European authorities can aggregate data on travellers and identify potential security threats before they arrive.
