🛂 Latvia will implement a mandatory Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) system for non-EU travellers starting September 2025.
-
🌐 The new system applies to visitors from visa-exempt countries outside the European Union.
-
📲 Travellers must apply online for an ETA before entering Latvia, making pre-travel approval essential.
-
💶 The ETA will include a processing fee, making it a paid entry requirement for eligible travellers.
-
✅ Approval will allow short-term stays, such as tourism or business visits.
-
🧾 Applicants will need to provide personal, travel, and passport details during the application.
-
⏱ Authorities expect the ETA approval process to be quick and mostly automated.
-
🔐 The system aims to strengthen border security and manage visitor flows more efficiently.
-
🌍 Latvia’s move aligns with the EU’s wider strategy, including the upcoming ETIAS program.
-
📅 Travellers planning trips to Latvia from September 2025 onward must check ETA requirements in advance.
