Presumably, the ETIAS entry form will only be offered via the internet. For most people, this is not a problem, as an internet connection is now as common as an electricity connection. However, there are many people who do not have internet. They are now asking themselves how they can enter the Schengen area without internet.
Agencies or travel agents can help you fill in the form
Not only does the lack of internet sometimes cause problems, but the form itself is not easy to fill out. Anyone who has ever been to the USA knows that the ESTA form has its pitfalls. Since ETIAS is based on ESTA, it can be assumed that this form is also not forgiving of mistakes. In the worst case, the form is invalid and travel to the Schengen area is not possible. There is not always enough time to fill out a new form at the airport.
Those who do not have a mobile phone, laptop or internet can have the form filled out by an agency. Here, too, the customer must carefully transmit the data or be present when the form is filled out. Then he can answer all the questions right away. Before the application is sent off, it is important to check all entries for correctness.
What to bear in mind when entering the country
The ETIAS permit is normally issued within a few hours. Only if the system reports a hit can it take a little longer. In this case, the application is checked by hand. However, the approval is not yet a guarantee of entry. The FRONTEX officer has the final say. If he feels that the traveller poses a danger in any way, he will refuse entry. This can have unpleasant consequences for the traveller, because in the worst case, he or she will be blocked for the ETIAS system and can only enter with a Schengen visa.
ETIAS makes the Schengen area safer
Although many have mixed feelings about the ETIAS system, it has many advantages. Probably the most important is that it makes travelling in the Schengen area safer overall. Terrorists and other people with evil intentions are very likely to be prevented from entering the area.
