根因分析
英国ETA每次访问最多停留6个月,但滚动180天窗口不会因短暂离开英国而重置;任何180天窗口内的累计停留时间上限为6个月,重新入境不会重置计数。
English
The UK ETA grants a maximum stay of 6 months per visit, but the rolling 180-day clock does not reset on a short trip outside the UK; the cumulative stay within any 180-day window is capped at 6 months, and re-entry does not reset the count.

-
Plan your UK stay so that total days in the UK within any 180-day window do not exceed 180 days. Use a calendar tool to track your entries and exits.
-
If you need a longer stay, apply for a UK Standard Visitor visa (valid up to 6 months per visit, but also subject to 180-day rule) or a long-term visit visa (2, 5, or 10 years) with a maximum stay of 6 months per visit.
无效尝试
常见但无效的做法:
-
Taking a day trip to Calais, France, then returning to the UK the same day, assuming the stay clock resets
90% 失败
The 6-month limit is calculated over a rolling 180-day window; a brief exit does not reset the window—border officers will count all days present in the UK in the preceding 180 days.
-
Applying for a new ETA after a short exit, believing it grants a fresh 6-month stay
80% 失败
A new ETA does not override the rolling 180-day rule; the immigration officer enforces the cumulative limit regardless of how many ETAs you hold.
