The European Travel Information and Authorization System (ETIAS) is a travel authorization system that will be implemented by the European Union for travelers from visa-exempt countries, including Americans, who wish to visit the Schengen Area.
The Schengen Area is a zone of 26 European countries that have abolished passport control at their mutual borders.
ETIAS is designed to enhance security and border management by pre-screening travelers before their arrival in the Schengen Area. Travelers will need to apply for an ETIAS authorization online before their trip. The authorization will be valid for multiple entries and will allow stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period.
ETIAS is expected to be implemented by May 2024. It is important for Americans and other visa-exempt travelers to be aware of this new requirement when planning their meetings and events in Europe.
