07/27/2012 - Travel Guidelines for the London 2012 Olympics



Heathrow Airport is offering Olympic athletes special services for zippier travel, but even if you’re not a discus thrower, rest assured that regular spectators and tourists of the London Olympics have it easy when it comes to documentation.

If you’re a US passport holder, you don’t need a visa. All you need is a passport. Make sure it’s valid and you’ll be eligible to enter and stay in the United Kingdom for up to six months. If you’re not a US passport holder, you may still be eligible—check the UK border agency 

Double-check that
·      your passport is valid for six months after your planned date of arrival (whether or not you plan to stay that long);
·      your passport has enough blank pages for official stamps.

Should you be missing any of these elements, or need assistance in applying for your US passport, visit us here for prompt, easy support on the process. Passport Visas Express will ensure that whatever documents you require to arrive in London will be obtained with all the speed of an Olympic runner.
Check out the official Olympics site for information on traveling within London.
