Important Notes for UK eVisa Holders

Passport Nationality Matters

The countries listed above are generally accessible to UK eVisa holders regardless of passport nationality. However, some destinations may have additional requirements or restrictions based on your passport country. Always check with the relevant embassy or consulate before booking.

What to Carry When Travelling

  • Valid passport with at least 6 months validity (some countries require this)
  • eVisa share code — generate this from your UKVI account before departure
  • Return or onward flight booking (often required for visa-free entry)
  • Proof of accommodation (hotel booking or host details)
  • Proof of sufficient funds (bank statements or cash)
  • Travel insurance (strongly recommended for all trips)

Schengen Area & EU Countries

The Schengen Area and most EU countries are not visa-free for UK eVisa holders. You will need to apply for a separate Schengen visa through the embassy of your main destination country. This applies to popular destinations like France, Spain, Italy, Germany, and others.
