Important Announcement:

    The upcoming, mandatory visa-waiver procedure (ETIAS) and associated fee for Americans and Canadians to enter the European Union has been postponed until the fourth quarter of 2026… yet another reason to travel there now!  It has been announced that the cost per person for ages 18 to 70 will be 20 Euros each.  Note: if the traveler is under 18 or over 71, they will still need the entry-permission, but will not be charged any fee.  No one from the US or Canada will be exempt from the ETAIS permission itself –not even babies.

BEWARE of middleman/third-party commercial sites who may be overcharging and are not legit, like the ubiquitous ETIAS. com The only official ETIAS site is the one shown below:
