Keep existing ESTA details or new for each trip

I've got an existing ESTA from a trip to LA last October, do I need to re-register the new trip details for my flight/stay in LA next week, or will my existing ESTA registration details do?

Hello

The existing ESTA details will be fine, i've not had to change my ESTA and i've been to different places in the US each time.

Yes the existing details will be ok - as long as your passport details have not changed your existing ESTA is still valid (and will be for 2 years from the date of application and as long as your passport has 2+ years to run, otherwise it expires when your passport does if yoru passport has less than 2 years left).

It is recommended but not compulsory to update ESTA with flight and accomodation details. In anycase the US Authorities will have this information from your APIS

Same here - haven't changed mine and not had any problems.

Ah I hadn't noticed, thank you! ^)

Thanks all for the replies. I was wondering as under the old regime of the green forms you had to enter new details EACH trip, so it's good to hear I don't need to do this each trip under the ESTA programme.

Our trip to LA last month my ESTA said I was going to NY and my wife's said LA. No issues at all when we arrived. So don't think it's a big deal.
