How It Works?
Applying for Your ESTA
Applying for your Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) is a quick, streamlined process designed to get you ready for your trip to the United States.
Disclaimer
Please note that we operate as a private technology platform assisting with the application submission process. We are not affiliated with the U.S. government or U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The final decision to grant or deny an ESTA rests solely with the U.S. authorities. Consequently, we cannot accept responsibility or liability for the ultimate outcome, rejection, or any delays associated with your application.
Your 3-Step Application Process
1. Fill Out the Form
Complete the online application with your personal data, passport details, and travel information. You will also need to answer standard security and eligibility questions. Make sure to have your valid passport handy before you begin.
2. Review and Pay
⚠️ Crucial Step: Double-check your passport number, date of birth, and name spelling exactly as they appear in the machine-readable zone of your passport. Even minor typographical errors can result in your application being rejected. If your application is denied due to a mistake, you cannot simply edit it—you will be required to submit a brand-new application and pay the fee again.
Once you are certain everything is accurate, proceed to the secure checkout to submit your application fee.
3. Receive Your ESTA
After payment, your application will be processed. While many applications are approved quickly, it can take up to 72 hours to receive a final decision. You will receive an email confirmation with your approval status.
Once approved, your ESTA is generally valid for up to two years or until your passport expires, allowing for multiple entries into the U.S. The duration of your stay in the United States is limited to three months, but CBS officers have the authority to make decisions about your stay.
