Starting 2 April 2025, European nationals traveling to or through the UK will need to ensure their eVisa (Pre-Settled or Settled Status) is correctly linked to the passport they are using. Failure to do so could result in being denied boarding for flights, trains, or ferries bound for the UK. For those unable to update their travel document details, seeking legal assistance is strongly advised to avoid travel disruptions. Before applying for an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA), travelers should check whether they qualify for status under the EU Settlement Scheme (EUSS). EU citizens who previously lived in the UK may still be eligible to make a late application under this scheme.
If you’re planning to work, set up a business, or stay in the UK beyond what is allowed under a standard visitor visa, you’ll need to apply for the appropriate UK visa before traveling. Some potential routes include: Skilled Worker Visa – for those with a job offer from a UK-based employer.Innovator/Founder Visa – for entrepreneurs looking to start or scale a business in the UK.UK Expansion Worker Visa – for businesses seeking to expand into the UK market
