/* ============================================================================
   UK ETA Gateway — stylesheet
   Written with CSS logical properties (inline-start/end, not left/right) so the
   Arabic RTL build needs no separate stylesheet. Test both after any change.

   Deliberate design constraint: this must NOT resemble GOV.UK. No black bar, no
   Transport typeface, no crown, no #FFDD00. Looking official would be deceptive
   and is exactly what regulators pursue third-party visa sites for.
