Travelling to America

I love America and try to holiday there a minimum of once per year. To do it you need authorisation called an ESTA. Thats assuming your holiday is 30 days or less, any longer you need a Visa.

There are many companies out there that will get one for you and I've heard some charge up to £100 for this service. An internet search will bring up many sites that look official but are not, you will be charged over the odds.

My advice is do it yourself the cost through the official site is $14 (around £9) and it only takes a few minutes, you get immediate acceptance.

This is the Official Site - https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov/esta/

The ESTA lasts two years so no need to renew for multiple trips.
