From Saturday 16 to Sunday 31 August 2025 inclusive, engineering works are planned on the high-speed line between Brussels and the French border. During these works, Eurostar and TGV INOUI trains will be diverted via an alternative route, resulting in longer journey times.
Our journey planner, booking system and ticket details already takes these changes into account.
The Electronic Travel Autorisation (ETA) is a digital autorisation required to enter the United Kingdom.
Since 2 April 2025, it has been compulsory for all citizens of the European Union (including children and babies), the European Economic Area and Switzerland travelling to the UK for short stays (up to 6 months), tourism, visits to relatives, business or short studies.
The ETA costs £16 per person. Once granted, it will be electronically linked to your passport and will be valid for 2 years (or until the expiry of the passport to which it is linked).
You must apply for your ETA online. Most applications are processed within 3 days, but this may be longer in some cases. So remember to apply for your ETA well in advance of your departure.
Apply for your Electronic Travel Autorisation or read more information on the UK Government website.
