The U.K. government announced expired physical documentation will be accepted for international travel until June 1, 2025, for visa holders making the transition to the new eVisa system.
Key Points:
Additional Information: According to Home Office statistics, over four million U.K. visa holders have successfully created an account to access their eVisa, and an estimated 600,000 people have yet to switch.
The Home Office is transitioning to a new eVisa system to create a streamlined digital border and immigration system. The grace period is designed to ease the shift to the digital system and address technical issues faced by some visa holders. Officials stated that this update does not affect the way that Border Force conducts its passenger checks and that passengers will remain subject to the usual immigration checks and requirements.
