For how long is the ESTA to USA valid?
The USA ESTA (Electronic System for Travel Authorization) is valid for 2 years from the date of issue or until your passport expires, whichever comes first. During this validity period, you can travel multiple times to the United States as long as each visit does not exceed the allowed 90 days.
Important Details about Validity
- Validity period: The ESTA allows you to enter and exit the United States for 2 years from the date of approval. This period begins from the date of issue of the ESTA, not from the date of entry into the country.
- Linked to the passport. If your passport expires before the 2-year period, the ESTA will also automatically expire. It is important to check the expiration date of your passport before each trip to ensure that your ESTA remains valid.
