Entering U.S. contact information (home address etc.) on the ESTA application
Contents
Can I apply for ESTA even if I haven’t decided where to stay?
You can apply for ESTA without US point of contact. Once you have decided to travel to the U.S., we recommend applying for ESTA well in advance. After having decided where you will be staying, it is recommended that you add a US point of contact to the ESTA application information. There might be a case in which your authorization might be put on temporary hold or it might be refused if there is something wrong with the information you entered when applying for ESTA, or depending on the results of screening of the content you entered. In such a case, you might not be able to check in for your planned flight, and it even could affect the flight’s schedule. If you apply for ESTA well enough in advance, you have enough time to reapply for ESTA in case your authorization is rejected. To ensure that you can travel to and stay in the U.S. with peace of mind, we recommend applying for ESTA early so that you can find out the results as soon as possible. Once you have decided on where you will be staying or your accommodations, simply add that information to your ESTA.
This page introduces how to register emergency contact information and information on where to stay in the United States.
More information for Esta application time, please check here.
About entering emergency contacts in and outside the United States
It is recommended to register the emergency contact information of the person concerned who can be surely contacted in case of emergency while the traveler is in the United States.
Those who wish to register emergency contact information
To register emergency contact information, select “Yes” and enter your full name, email address, and emergency phone number. Items that you do not wish to register can be left blank.
Those who do not register emergency contact information
Select “No” if you do not want to register emergency contact information.
What is the importance of registering accommodation information?
Once you have decided where you will be staying, it is recommended that you add additional contact information to the ESTA application information that will allow you to contact the traveler securely.
In the United States, immigration is becoming more stringent for travelers who have not yet decided on where to stay and where to stay.
The main reason is to protect the safety of the United States and the labor of the American people. You may be refused entry in cases where you are suspected of illegal stay or employment. A smooth and safe travel to the United States will be realized by declaring the accommodation you plan to stay in advance in the ESTA application form.
About entering accommodation＆information (home address line)
In the travel information column, there is a question “Is the purpose of traveling to the United States intended to transfer to another country?”
Select “No” if you are traveling to and staying in the US Islands such as the US mainland and Hawaii.
Note
Since you do not need to enter contact information when entering the U.S. for purposes of transit to another country, the fields for entering where you will be staying will not appear.
However, you still must apply for ESTA if transiting in the United States.
Those who have decided where to stay
If you select “No” for the question “Do you want to travel to another country for the purpose of traveling to the US?”, “Do you want to register your address and phone number?” Is displayed. If you already have a place to stay, select “Yes” and enter the name, address and phone number of the place you are staying or staying. If you don’t know, you can leave it blank.
In the ESTA application, the street name, street address, and building name of the address are called the “home address line”. There are 1 and 2 in the home address line. Enter the name of the residence, street address for the home address line 1, and the name of the building of the destination for the home address line 2.
Shows how to enter this information in the case of the “Beverly Wilshire, Beverly Hills” (a Four Seasons Hotel), a popular five-star hotel in Beverly Hills, California.
Those who have not decided where to stay
You can apply for an ESTA even if you have not decided on your accommodation.
If you select “No” for the question “Do you want to travel to another country for the purpose of traveling to the US?”, “Do you want to register your address and phone number?” Is displayed. Select “No” if you have not decided on accommodation or want to register.
If the purpose of your trip to the United States is not to transfer to another country, you can register an additional address and phone number after you have obtained an ESTA.
