Apply for Global Entry Renewal
Global Entry Renewal
Membership renewal is the same as for first-time applicants. You can renew up to one year before your membership expires. If your membership lapses, you must renew as a first-time applicant.
Membership is valid for 5 years. You can renew your membership by filling out an application form and attending another interview at an enrolment center. You can also book a meeting online over Zoom.
The United States commits to safe and secure borders. Your status as a low-risk traveler may not be the same as when you last applied. Thus, the government conducts background and security checks from scratch. Law enforcement, immigration, and border agencies carry out the checks.
If you are conditionally approved you must attend a compulsory interview at an enrolment center. You have 30 days to schedule a Global Entry interview. If you fail to do this, you are automatically denied access to the program. You are not eligible to reapply until 90 days after your denial.
How To Renew Global Entry
Follow the steps described below:
- STEP 1: Open the application by clicking on the “START YOUR APPLICATION” button above. Complete the form and submit it.
- STEP 2: Click on the payment button to complete the IVT service fee through our service provider.
- STEP 3: When we receive your application form and payment, your data and documents will be carefully reviewed. If everything is correct, we submit the info to the U.S. government for background and law enforcement checks. It can take up to 6 months to receive a decision on your eligibility as a Trusted Traveler. When you receive a decision you must book and attend a compulsory interview.
- STEP 4: IVT contacts you with your completed Trusted Traveler profile. This allows you to check for status changes with your application. If your application is Conditionally Approved, you can set an appointment for your compulsory interview.
All applicants must apply for an individual membership.
Inaccurate or incomplete application forms are automatically denied access to the program.

How To Fill Out Your Trusted Traveler Form
Get your passport and driver license ready. If you're renewing, you'll need your old PASSID number. If you have a green card, you'll need your card.
Open the form. Choose if you're a first-timer or if you're renewing.
In the first section fill out your name and birth info. You must write your name as it appears on your passport.
The next section deals with your nationality and your right to live in the USA. You need your passport and any visas for this section.
Next, give your driver details. Add in the info about your car, if you want to cross the Mexican border.

THE TRUSTED TRAVEL INTERVIEW
There’s no getting away from the compulsory interview!
It doesn’t matter who you are or how old you are, everyone has to attend an interview.
Once the government have finished their background checks they will decide if you are a low-threat traveler or not. If you’ve listed any convictions or criminal charges on your application, you’re unlikely to get approved – even if the charges have been expunged. Similarly, if you’ve ever committed any immigration or custom’s offences, you’re unlikely to be accepted onto the program.
Interviews last 10 minutes for TSA Pre. Other programs take 30 minutes. They take place at at one of the official enrollment centers located all over the USA as well as in Canada and at other international destinations.
THE INTERVIEW SCHEDULE
Photo: facial recognition technology can recognize you every time you approach the kiosk.
Document verification: we tell you which documents to take to interview.
Iris scanning: look into a machine for a picture detailing the intricacies of your iris.
Fingerprint scanning: no ink is involved, and the process is totally risk-free.
