While details regarding the application process are yet to be released, the system is expected to be fully digital. The ETA requirement also extends to nationals from other countries worldwide, including Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Japan, and the United States. Caribbean governments are expected to address the potential impact of this new policy on tourism and trade soon.

The UK is implementing stricter border control measures, including a new Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) system for US and EU citizens and a visa requirement for Jordanian nationals. The ETA, aimed at enhancing security and streamlining entry, will come into effect in January 2025, while the visa requirement for Jordanians is immediate.
