USA Global Entry Program Hassle Free Way To Enter US For Indians

15 Jun 2016

A senior Home Ministry official said, “Hopefully, by the end of July or first week of August, Indian citizens can apply before a US consulate for entry under the Global Entry.” Indians wait for this opportunity to be able to apply for Global Entry.

It is a US Custom and Border Protection Program that permits speedy clearance for pre-approved and minimal-risk travelers when they arrive in America.

US and India signed an agreement last fortnight which offers the facility of hassle-free entry of Indians in America at selected airports.

The list which has been prepared for now includes high dignitaries from India and the ones who fly quite often to America. They will be enrolled in the program at the beginning. The list consists of 2,000 people for now and it will expand gradually after every individual’s background is checked thoroughly.

The travelers in the list will enter US through automatic kiosks at selected airports. Kiosk issues a transaction receipt and directs the traveler to baggage claim and the exit.

The two main conditions included for an individual in Global Entry Program are that he or she should not have any criminal record or be connected to any money laundering case.

Global Entry is available currently at 40 US airports and 12 pre-clearance locations. Number of people enrolled for Global Entry is 1.8 million people and approximately 50,000 new applications are filed every month.
