Entry requirements
Entry to the United Kingdom
- It is recommended to check the conditions for entry to the UK. An ID-card is no longer accepted for entry to the UK! Citizens of EU countries need a passport - please consult with your institute's mobility management whether a private passport or an official passport is required. For German citizens at PTB, a private passport is currently considered sufficient by the PTB mobility management, but this may need to be checked again in summer 2026 in light of the tightening of British entry rules. Please consider to apply for a new passport now, if your old one is about to expire or you do not possess one at the moment, bearing in mind that waiting times may be very long in some countries. In addition to the passport, an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) is needed. It can be obtained a few weeks before the business trip. You need to pay a fee also for this online ETA application.
- Attendees from non-EU countries usually need a visa for the UK. As the UK is neither part of the EU nor a Schengen country, Schengen visa do not help for Britain. Guests from overseas may need two different visas if they wish to attend NanoScale in England and visit institutes in the EU. Please consult with the organizers as early as possible. Due to the increased international tensions since 2022-02-24, both UK and EU countries persue a rather tight visa policy.
Visa support
If you need a visa to enter the UK, please register for NanoScale 2026 first and then contact the organizers for a visa support letter. Please attach a scan of the ID page of your passport, and observe the application & entry requirements on the website of the British Foreign Ministry. The participant needs to bear all travel costs on its own, and may need to prove this upon visa application. Please note that the organizers may wait with the visa support letter until the payment of the participation fee is received on the NanoScale bank account. If visa application fails, the organizers will transfer the money back.
Please note that British visa are not valid in the European Union. If you plan to visit countries in the EU or want to travel through a Europeran Union country on your way to Britain, you may need to apply for an additional Schengen visa. Please contact the organizers for details.
Note
Members of institutions in countries that support the Russian aggression war (Russia, Belarus, Iran...) cannot attend at all, in line with the sanctions imposed by the United Kingdom, European Union and its member states, the recommendations given by EURAMET and the rules applicable for NMIs in Europe and elsewhere after February 24th, 2022.
NPL and PTB reserve the right to refuse invitation or attendance at their sole discretion.
