Core Functions
Easy Profile Creation
Quickly create a traveler profile using your passport information. You can even add profiles for your family members, and the app securely stores this information on your device for future use. 👨👩👧👦
Streamlined Submission Process
Answer CBP inspection-related questions within the app, select your port of entry, and submit everything upon arrival. This digital submission significantly speeds up the in-person inspection. 🚀
Virtual Receipt
After submitting your information, CBP sends a virtual receipt directly to your device, confirming that your submission has been processed. This digital receipt simplifies the next steps. ✅
Designated MPC Lane
Proceed to the Mobile Passport Control lane upon arrival, where CBP officers can quickly process your entry using the information you’ve already submitted via the app. This minimizes wait times and gets you on your way faster. 💨
Applicable people
The Mobile Passport Control app is perfect for U.S. citizens, Canadian visitors, Lawful Permanent Residents, and Visa Waiver Program visitors who want to expedite their entry process into the United States. If you value efficiency and want to reduce wait times at airports and seaports, this app is designed for you!
Passport Still Required
While MPC streamlines the entry process, it does not replace your passport. You must still present your physical passport and any other required travel documents to the CBP Officer for inspection. The app is designed to expedite the process, not eliminate the need for essential travel documents. Make sure to have your passport readily available when you approach the CBP Officer. 🛂
