What Should Be Done If an Application for UK Electronic Travel Authorisation Is Refused?

While an ETA refusal may seem like a significant setback, it does not necessarily prevent a person from travelling to the UK. Individuals who face an ETA refusal should not assume they are barred from visiting the UK. Rather, they may simply need to navigate a more detailed application process to be granted permission to travel. For those who have had an ETA refused, acting promptly and ensuring that a Visitor visa application is well-prepared will be critical to achieving a successful outcome.
