HOW TO APPLY FOR AN ESTA VISA
Good to know: the first requirement for ESTA authorization is a biometric or electronic passport. How can you tell? All you need is a microchip on the cover of your passport to be sure. Make sure it’s valid too; if the date has expired, you’ll need to apply for a new passport before applying for an ESTA visa.
Once you’ve checked this, all you have to do is follow our advice on how to apply as quickly and simply as possible.
1ST STAGE
Transmit your personal data. To begin with, you will be asked to confirm your identity by specifying :
- your gender (male or female)
- your first name(s) if more than one
- your date of birth
- your city and country of birth
- your nationality
- your parents’ identity
- your job and different employers
- your social network profiles
STEP 2
Transmit your passport information. This is a classic for travel, you must specify all important data related to your passport such as :
- your passport number
- date of issue
- its expiry date
- and its country of issue
- your travel and residence information in the USA
You will be asked to enter your e-mail address once, and then to verify it again. This is an essential step, as your response to the authorization request will then be sent there.
LAST STEP
To complete your request, simply pay for your order by entering your bank details. We’ll get back to you as soon as possible. We’ll get back to you within 72 hours, usually within a few hours. The authorization is valid for two years.
Be careful: an ESTA application can be rejected for a simple typo. So, when filling in your application, make sure you haven’t mixed up the surname with the first name, or the date of issue with the expiry date. It may sound far-fetched, but these mistakes happen more often than you might think.
