U.S. Visa Waiver Program |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Effective 26 October 2006, ALL Visa Waiver Travelers will be required to have an e-passport to enter the United States under the Visa Waiver Program (VWP), if the passport was issued on or after 26 October 2006. An e-passport includes an integrated chip with biographical information from the passport data page. However, valid machine-readable passports that meet the following requirements do not need to be replaced: |
|
| |
|
|
| |
| |
 |
A VWP traveler who has a valid machine-readable passport with a digital photo does not need a new e-passport until the existing passport expires, if the digital photo passport was issued before 26 October 2006. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
A VWP traveler with a valid machine-readable passport without a digital photo does not need a new e-passport until the existing one expires, if the machine-readable passport was issued before 26 October 2005. |
