US Visa Waiver Procedures - ESTA

All passengers travelling to the United States of America or transiting through will be required to obtain an electronic travel authorisation prior to boarding a carrier to travel by air or sea to the USA under the Visa Waiver program. This system has been mandated by US Government legislation, following 9/11.

It is now compulsory to log on to https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov to complete this online Visa Waiver program. Please note that the Visa Waiver can only be applied for online, therefore if you do not have internet access you'll need to find either a friend, family member or public place where you'll be able to complete your registration.

This must be completed no later than 72 hours prior to departure. Be aware that airlines are not allowed to carry any passengers who do not have ESTA approval. The Visa Waiver is free to obtain and will last for up to 2 years unless revoked or your passport expires.
