Attention International Attendees

Starting October 1, 2003, each Visa Waiver Program (VWP) traveler must present a machine-readable passport (MRP) at the U.S. port of entry to enter the U.S. without a visa, otherwise a nonimmigrant visa is required. This change includes all categories of passports, when the traveler is seeking to enter the U.S.

For more detailed information, contact your country's passport office.
