Modify Your Application
Need to change something? Don't worry — we are here to help you make corrections. Let's look at your options together.
What Can Be Changed?
Depending on the current status of your application, certain changes may be possible. Here is a helpful guide:
✓ Usually Easy to Change
These changes can typically be made if your application has not yet been sent to US authorities:
- Travel dates (arrival and departure)
- Accommodation address in the United States
- Email address or contact information
- Flight details
- Corrections to your name or personal details
- Employment information
- Emergency contact details
⚠ May Be Difficult to Change
Once your application has been sent to US authorities, changes to these details may require a new application:
- Passport number (if you have a new passport, a new ESTA is usually required)
- Country of citizenship
- Answers to eligibility questions
How to Request a Change
Requesting a change is simple. Follow these steps:
Send Us an Email
Email our support team at [email protected]. Include your application reference number in the subject line so we can find your application quickly.
Tell Us What Needs to Change
Clearly describe what information needs to be updated. For example: "I need to change my arrival date from March 15 to March 22" or "I made a typo in my last name — it should be Smith, not Smth."
We Review and Confirm
Our team will review your change request. If the change can be made, we will update your application and send you a confirmation email. If a new application is needed, we will explain why and help you with next steps.
When Do I Need a Completely New Application?
In some cases, a modification is not possible and a new ESTA application is needed. This typically happens when:
- You have received a new passport (your ESTA is linked to your passport number)
- Your country of citizenship has changed
- Your existing ESTA has expired
- Your answers to the eligibility questions have changed
- Your ESTA was previously denied and circumstances have changed
Common Questions About Modifications
Is there an extra fee to modify my application?
In most cases, minor corrections to information that has not yet been sent to authorities are handled at no extra cost. If a completely new application is required, the standard fee applies. We will always tell you in advance.
How quickly can changes be made?
We aim to process modification requests within 24 hours. The sooner you contact us, the more likely we can make the change before your application is sent.
Can I change my travel dates if my ESTA is already approved?
An approved ESTA is not linked to specific travel dates — it is valid for two years (or until your passport expires). You can travel on different dates without modifying your ESTA.
