We offer access to travel insurance to protect you and your investment in travel. The purchase of travel insurance is not required in order to purchase any other product or service offered.

What you need to know
The Entry/Exit System (EES) was gradually introduced at European border crossing points starting 12 October 2025 and will be fully implemented by 10 April 2026.
Why it matters:
- Faster border crossings – less waiting in line
- Fewer errors – your data is recorded electronically
- Better transparency – travel records are clear and secure
The EES is part of the EU’s plan to modernize international travel and will work with the upcoming European Travel Information and Authorization System (ETIAS).
Stay informed on the go: The Travel to Europe mobile app provides real-time information about EES procedures, border updates, and useful tips for travelers. It’s a convenient tool to help your journey go smoothly. Download the app and learn more here: Travel to Europe Mobile App
Whether for business, study, or vacation, knowing about the EES will help your trip go smoothly.

Electronic Travel Permit
NO ACTION IS REQUIRED AT THIS POINT
ETIAS will start operations in the last quarter of 2026.
WHAT IS ETIAS?
ETIAS stands for European Travel Information and Authorization System. It is a completely electronic system that allows and keeps track of visitors from countries who do not need a visa to enter the Schengen Zone. In a way, it resembles the U.S Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA), which serves a similar purpose.
