Do I need the embassy or an online ETA?
A traveller applying from United States should choose the route by passport nationality and travel purpose, rather than by current residence alone. The online checker helps identify the relevant ETA guidance; matters involving passports, citizenship, legalisation or an exceptional immigration case belong with the Washington, D.C. mission. The embassy or high commission remains the right place to confirm passport, citizenship, legalisation and case-specific requirements.
