ESTA Visa

customerunhap

Hi folks,
I've completed my ESTA Visa application online, one is for two of us who have an Esta so we didn't need to go again, the existing one covers us, and the second for two additional people in our travel party.
I logged in and saw that both applications were authorised, so I assume each passengers just brings their passport/plane ticket and that will suffice?
We don't need to print off anything ESTA Visa related?
Thanks

Ms Happy

You're all set, no need to print anything.

I have printed my ESTA number onto a sticker and stuck it to the back of my passport. (purely for myself!)

No you're good to go once it's authorised

That's intriguing terminology you're using there. An ESTA covers only one person, just in case you think otherwise.

It's explicitly stated on the ESTA FAQ page that you do not need to bring a printout with you.

I always print it out....and I never need it. Pointless.

Also the ESTA is not a visa OP the ESTA approval is linked to your passport. Each person needs one.

Indeed, ESTA is a Visa waiver program, not a Visa application process.

If your electronic travel authorization is approved, this approval establishes that you are eligible to travel to the United States under the Visa Waiver Program, but does not guarantee that you are admissible to the United States. Upon arrival in the United States you will be inspected by a Customs and Border Protection officer at a port of entry who may determine that you are inadmissible under the Visa Waiver Program or for any reason under United States law

Just to clarify, I have done two Group applications, one is a new application for two people, two different passport numbers.
The second two people travelling are two persons who visited the US in the last few months, so their ESTA is intact still.
So just to clarify, if each of the four passengers have been listed as 'authorised' on the two group applications, they just rock up to the airport with passport/ticket?
