To transit through the USA, you must have an ESTA, a visa, or an American or Canadian passport. Your passport number is checked for these permits during the check-in process for your flight to the USA.
Compared to a visa, applying for an ESTA is a much simpler process. Obtaining a visa requires scheduling an appointment at the US embassy and incurring higher costs. On the other hand, an ESTA application can be completed online quickly and easily. This makes ESTA the most convenient option for transiting through the USA.
An ESTA is valid for a duration of two years, as long as the passport linked to the application remains valid during that time. This means that you can use the same ESTA multiple times for transfers or transits through the USA. The application form only requires you to provide a single date of arrival, and it is not possible to provide additional or changed dates of arrival. A new ESTA application is only necessary if either the linked passport or the ESTA itself expires.
When filling out the ESTA application form, you will be asked if you are travelling to the USA for transit purposes only. If you answer “Yes”, you are not required to provide details about your accommodation in the USA. However, if your application is approved, you will still receive the same travel authorization as if you had stated that you are planning to stay in the USA. This means that even if you applied for an ESTA solely for the purpose of making a transit, you can still use it for a holiday or business trip to the USA for a maximum of 90 consecutive days, as long as your trip meets the requirements set for ESTA usage.
Yes, you can leave the airport during a transit in the USA, but it depends on your nationality, the length of your layover, and whether you have an ESTA or visa. If you’re eligible to leave, make sure you have enough time for customs, security, and potential delays.
Based on the information provided, it can be inferred that EU and UK citizens may leave the airport during a layover in the USA, as the ESTA allows for a stay of up to 90 days. However, it is important to note that airlines and airports may have their own restrictions and guidelines regarding layovers. To ensure that you can leave the airport during your layover, it is recommended to check with your airline beforehand.
Occasionally, there is a misconception regarding the terms transfer and transit. A transfer indicates that a passenger changes planes at the airport to continue their journey. On the other hand, during a transit, you land in the USA and wait inside or outside the aircraft before proceeding to your final destination on the same plane. Both a transfer and a transit require an ESTA, visa, or American passport.
