Hi,

I think I know the answer to this, but double - checking….

Do you need to have a certain period of time left on your ESTA to travel to the US? I’ll be travelling in April, my ESTA expires in June this year, will that be ok or do I need to renew ahead of this trip?

Thanks!

You’re fine.

You just need to enter the USA by your ESTA expiry date. You don’t need a valid ESTA to cover your stay - just valid on your arrival day.
