Customs and travel information
This section tells you what you can expect when you travel across the UK border, and what you must do if you want to travel to, from or through the UK.
The information here is for all travellers, including UK passport holders, residents and short-term visitors.
We are responsible for protecting the UK border so that authorised travellers and legitimate goods can pass freely. We do this through the work of our visa staff overseas, and the immigration and customs checks carried out by our border force at ports and airports.
If you are making a short-term visit to the UK, the section on Visitors' rights and responsibilities will tell you whether you can do business while you are here, what medical treatment is available to you, and whether you will need to register with the police.
