Passport and transit notes

Passport validity: UK visitor guidance requires a passport or travel document that is valid for the whole stay.; Validity source (opens in a new tab) Validity guide
Transit: airside transit: conditional; landside transit: required; ETA travellers need an ETA for landside transit when passing through UK border control before continuing their journey. Airside treatment depends on the airport, route and airline confirmation; collecting bags, changing airports or travelling onward within the Common Travel Area is not airside transit.; Transit source (opens in a new tab) Transit guide

Why this verdict

Liechtenstein citizens can visit the UK for up to 6 months for tourism, family visits or business, but they now need a UK ETA before travel unless another exemption applies. The ETA is not a visa; it is a pre-travel authorisation linked to the passport.
