SITA Electronic Travel Authorization

Strengthening national security through a robust and real time Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) solution

SITA Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) is a web and mobile digital authorization solution for travelers that do not require an entry visa. Using this solution governments can collect the traveler’s personal and biometric information before travel. That information is then reviewed, risk assessed, and ETAs are granted to travelers before they depart, which strengthens a nation’s security.
