What you need before you start
Gather these and the application takes about five minutes. Nothing here is unusual — it's exactly what the official ESTA form asks for.
Your passport
Document number, the date it was issued and the date it expires, plus the country that issued it. A biometric (e-passport) is required.
Your contact details
Home address, email address and a telephone number you actually use.
Both parents' names
Family name and given name for each. You can tick "Unknown" if you genuinely don't know.
Employment, if you work
Employer name, your job title and the employer's address and telephone number.
Where you'll stay in the U.S.
The address or hotel, and a point of contact there with their address, city, state and telephone number. "Unknown" is accepted as a contact name if you haven't booked yet.
An emergency contact
Their name, email address and telephone number. They don't need to be in the U.S.
Your travel dates
Your planned arrival date, and your departure date if you already know it.
A phone, if you want the quick route
You can photograph your passport and we'll read the details for you instead of typing them in.
About five minutes from start to payment.
