The European Commission has proposed increasing the ETIAS travel authorisation fee to €20 due to inflation since 2018 and higher operational costs. This measure affects non-EU nationals entering the Schengen area who will require an online application with personal information. The ETIAS will be valid for three years. Exemptions apply to individuals under 18 or over 70 and family members of EU citizens. The new fee matches similar authorisation programs in the UK and the US, which reflect adjusted costs as well.
The European Commission proposed raising the fee for the EU's ETIAS travel authorisation to €20 due to inflation and rising operational costs.
Non-EU nationals traveling to the Schengen area will need to apply online for a travel authorisation before departure, providing personal information.
The ETIAS travel authorisation will be valid for three years, with exemptions for those under 18 or over 70, and certain family members.
The revised ETIAS fee aligns with similar programs like the UK Electronic Travel Authorisation and the US Electronic System for Travel Authorization.
