Visas: Digital Technology Asked by: Baroness Hamwee (Liberal Democrat - Life peer) Wednesday 15th July 2026 Question to the Home Office: To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to ensure that non-EU citizens with digital-only eVisas, lawfully resident in, and with permission to enter, the UK are recognised as having adequate documentation and are not denied boarding. Answered by Lord Hanson of Flint - Minister of State (Home Office) The Home Office has engaged with international carriers on the use of eVisas through direct communications, carrier forums and awareness sessions, and continues to do so. Carriers can verify a passenger's permission to travel through digital checks against Home Office systems and have access to operational guidance and support. The UK Carrier Support Hub operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to assist with status checks where required. eVisa holders are advised to keep their UKVI account up to date and ensure the passport or travel document they intend to use for travel is linked to their account. More than 10 million eVisas have been issued and most people use them with no issues.
