Lost ESTA document

If you can’t find your ESTA, you can check its validity on the official website by entering your identity and file number.

Do you have to fill out a new form if you have lost your ESTA?

We always recommend that you have your ESTA printed out on paper so that you have it available just in case. If you have misplaced your travel authorization and do not know how to find it, do not worry. The process is very simple and does not require you to reapply. This means that you will not have to pay the application fee again. A travel authorization is valid for two years, and is validated electronically. As a result, the information you provide when filling out your form is stored in the U.S. Customs’ computer database. This means that a U.S. customs officer can easily access this information and confirm that you have ESTA authorization.

Note: If your personal details have changed since your last ESTA application, e.g. change of name or address, or renewal of your passport, it is imperative that you renew your ESTA.
