Rules in force · 6The tube has steps and crowds
  • United Kingdom ↗Most visitors who do not need a UK visa now need an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) before travelling; this includes EU nationals. Irish citizens are exempt. Check the UK government site for your passport.
  • United Kingdom ↗The UK is outside the EU and the Schengen area; a Schengen visa is not valid for the UK.
  • United Kingdom ↗Driving is on the left; London has congestion and emissions charges for most vehicles, so do not drive in the city.
  • London and the South East ↗Check the last train home before you book a late dinner outside London; services thin after 22:00 and strikes can remove them.
  • London ↗The tube has steps and crowds: two large bags go by taxi or the Elizabeth line, not on a rush-hour tube.
  • London ↗Traffic drives on the left: look right first when you cross, and use the signal at crossings.
