Border Force measures and monitors wait times at all major UK ports to ensure the flow of legitimate travel into UK.

The latest Border Force transparency data shows that 95% of arrivals to the UK were cleared within the service standard in the second quarter of this year and in July, 90% of passengers surveyed were satisfied with their experience at UK border control. The most recent data is available on Gov.UK; www.gov.uk/government/publications/border-force-transparency-data-q2-2023.

We do not publish port level wait times for commercial sensitivity as it may provide an unfair advantage to certain ports if others are seen to be performing more badly. The way data is captured is also different across ports so will not be a like for like comparison.
