UK warns travellers against Etias waiver scams as EU scheme delayed

Abta warns Britons not to use third-party websites offering Etias visa waivers, as over 150 sites tout the service despite the EU scheme's introduction being delayed. The €20 waiver for visa-exempt travellers to the Schengen zone is not yet operational, creating a scam window. This highlights confusion and fraud risk around a pending EU border policy change affecting UK and other non-EU travellers.
