Since Brexit, British tourists have had to have their passport stamped every time they enter and leave the EU. Under a new scheme, this will no longer be the case but Britons will have to pay to holiday in the bloc.<\/p>\n

The ETIAS scheme is a new entry requirement for non-EU citizens travelling to the EU. It has been designed to strengthen border security in the bloc.<\/p>\n

Britons will need to apply for an ETIAS online. It is valid for three years and is expected to cost seven euros (\u00a36) for British adults.<\/p>\n

The ETIAS hasn\u2019t been introduced yet and the launch has been delayed several times. It is currently expected to launch in 2024.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s everything British tourists need to know about the ETIAS scheme.<\/p>\n
