Do I need any additional information for my API if I’m travelling to the USA?
When you complete your Advance Passenger Information for the USA, you'll also need:
- Your first night address in the USA - this is where you're staying on your first night. Make sure it matches the address you used when applying for your Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA).
- Your redress number (if you have one)
Which address should you provide?
- For fly drive holidays, give us the name and location of your car hire company and where you plan to stop first.
- For cruises, provide the name of your cruise ship and the port where it departs from.
- If your accommodation is allocated on arrival, use our resort office details: Welcome USA, 7769 West Irlo Bronson Memorial Highway, Kissimmee, Florida 34747.
- For backpacking trips, tell us where you expect to spend your first night.
- For connecting flights, provide your onward flight number and destination.
