Traveller categories in public ETIAS documentation
ETIAS publications may describe categories of travellers in a general way, often by reference to travel document type and existing EU border rules.
Typical category language
- References to travel documents and document-issuing authorities.
- References to visa-related concepts without providing personalised determinations.
- References to exemptions and special statuses defined by law.
This site does not identify which category applies to any person. It is a glossary and reference surface only.
