Citizens of France, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Luxembourg and Switzerland are visa-exempt for short visits to the UK and travel under the Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) scheme — a £20 digital authorisation through the UK ETA App, not a visa or VAC appointment. Ireland is the exception: under the Common Travel Area, Irish citizens need no ETA and no visa to enter, live or work in the UK.

UK Visa & ETA Guides for Western Europe

Each guide covers ETA requirements, the work, study and family routes that still need a full visa, and live UK visa fees in euros with grant-rate context from the latest Home Office statistics.
