Essential Things to Know Before Traveling To The USA

The United States of America (USA) is one of the world’s largest countries. This country spans a large portion of the North American continent, from sea to sea, from mountain peaks to ocean shores.

The country has a rich history that dates back well over 200 years, and the United States continues to lead the world into the future. They provide some of the most expensive and high-quality entertainment available anywhere in the world. A country of this size is a popular destination for international tourists.


Across the beautiful American landscape, there are numerous cities to visit, landmarks to see, and places to explore. This article will look at 12 aspects of the United States, ranging from important things to know before traveling to US to amusing and interesting facts to remember.

Traveling to the United States is something that everyone should do at least once in their lives.

Things to Know Before Traveling To The USA

If you want to travel to the US, here are 12 essential things to know before traveling to US:

#1. To enter the United States, you must have a tourist visa or an ESTA

Incoming visitors to America must be aware of and understand the requirements for entering the United States.

The US Visa Waiver Program, also known as the Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA), currently allows citizens of these 39 countries to enter the US without a visa for up to 90 days.


The European Union, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, Singapore, and a few others account for the majority of these countries.

Understand that your 90-day period begins the moment you set foot on US soil, including Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and other US territories.

Those 90 days in the United States include time spent in Canada, Mexico, Bermuda, or Caribbean islands if the arrival was via the United States.

If arriving by air or cruise ship, the ESTA application is not required. It is not required when traveling by land or on local ferries, such as those between Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and Seattle, Washington.


The ESTA is valid for two years. You can visit the US an unlimited number of times as long as each stay is no longer than 90 days.

The ESTA is far less expensive than a traditional tourist visa, and filling out a simple application form only takes about 20 minutes. While you can apply for your ETSA at any time before your flight, it is recommended that you do so at least 72 hours in advance.

Have your ESTA and approval number ready when you leave, as it will be requested during check-in. If you want to stay in the US for more than 90 days, or if you don’t qualify for the ESTA program, you’ll need a visa.

Obtaining Other US Visas

If you want to stay in the US for a longer period of time, or if your citizenship is not covered by the ESTA program, you will need to look into other US tourist visas, primarily the B-2 Visa (tourist visa).
