ETIAS countries: where will ETIAS be required?

How many countries require ETIAS?

Thirty countries sit inside the ETIAS scheme. That is the entire Schengen area, which includes most EU members plus four non-EU countries (Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland), together with Cyprus. A single ETIAS authorisation is expected to cover all of them, so you do not apply separately for each country on a multi-stop trip.

Which countries are not in ETIAS?

Ireland is the notable exception. It is an EU member but stays outside both the Schengen area and ETIAS, so it keeps its own entry rules. The UK is not in ETIAS either; it runs a separate UK ETA for visitors coming the other way. Microstates such as Monaco, San Marino and Vatican City have open borders with their Schengen neighbours and are treated as part of that area in practice.

Are Cyprus, Bulgaria and Romania included?

Yes, all three are inside ETIAS. Bulgaria and Romania are now full Schengen members, so they work like any other Schengen country. Cyprus is an EU member that has not yet joined Schengen, but it is still part of the ETIAS scheme, so visa-exempt travellers are expected to need an authorisation for it once the system is live.

Do you need a separate ETIAS for each country?

No. One ETIAS is linked to your passport and works across every country in the scheme for the length of its validity. What it does not change is the time limit: stays across all of these countries still count toward the same 90 days in any 180-day period. See ETIAS requirements for the full rules.
