I was economical with the truth when answering the question about convictions.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;When you get there, there is almost no human interaction. You go straight to a machine where you scan your passport and fill in a customs declaration. The machine then prints a receipt, which you pass to a border officer, who barely checks your passport and just ushers you through.</description><pubDate>Tue, 08 Oct 2019 14:06:52 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>BenS</dc:creator></item><item><title>RE: Applied for Eta with criminal record</title><link>https://forum.unlock.org.uk/FindPost26486.aspx</link><description>&lt;div data-id="26485" class="if-quote-wrapper" unselectable="on" data-guid="1570176638014"&gt;&lt;a class="quote-para" unselectable="on" style="display: none;" href="#" data-id="26485" title="Move Cursor Below" contenteditable="false"&gt;&lt;span unselectable="on"&gt;+&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a class="quote-delete" unselectable="on" style="display: none;" href="#" data-id="26485" title="Delete Quote" contenteditable="false"&gt;&lt;span unselectable="on"&gt;x&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span unselectable="on" class="quote-markup"&gt;[quote]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div unselectable="on" class="if-quote-header" contenteditable="false"&gt;&lt;div unselectable="on" class="if-quote-toggle-wrapper"&gt;&lt;a class="if-quote-toggle quote-link" href="#" data-id="26485" title=" "&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span unselectable="on" class="quote-markup"&gt;[b]&lt;/span&gt;JJ19 - 3 Oct 19 9:00 PM&lt;span unselectable="on" class="quote-markup"&gt;[/b]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="if-quote-message if-quote-message-26485"&gt;&lt;div class="if-quote-message-margin"&gt;Has anyone applied for an Eta with a criminal record&amp;nbsp; ?&lt;a class="if-quote-goto quote-link" href="#" data-id="26485"&gt;&lt;span class="goto"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span class="quote-markup"&gt;[/quote]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br/&gt;for which country?</description><pubDate>Fri, 04 Oct 2019 09:10:42 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Yankee</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
