Visa travel rules for UK citizens

British passport holders can stay visa-free for up to 90 days for tourism and visiting friends and family. The visa exemption also covers certain business activities, like attending meetings, conducting market research, or exploring investment opportunities.

Chile SAG for travelers from the United Kingdom

The Declaración Jurada SAG (SAG Sworn Declaration) is a legally required entry form used by Chile’s agricultural authorities. It was designed to protect the country’s ecosystem and food supply.

The Declaration form contains questions about the goods you’re bringing into Chile. You’ll be asked to declare any regulated items, such as animal or plant products, food, and other biological or agricultural materials.

You must fill out the form before you travel, whatever your reason for going to Chile. Even if you are not carrying any restricted items, you’re still required to submit the Declaration each time you enter the country. Only under-18s are exempt.

Additional entry information

All visitors should be prepared for routine entry checks on arrival. Border officials may ask questions about why you’re visiting and how long you’re staying.

They may request supporting information, like details of your accommodation or return flight. It’s useful to have these details to hand so you can answer any questions.

If you’re traveling with minors, they must hold their own passport and visa (if applicable). Under 18s don’t need to complete a SAG Declaration.
