ARRIVAL/DEPARTURE FORMS: I-94 AND I-94W



Foreign visitors to the U.S. no longer need to complete paper Customs and Border
Protection Form I-94 Arrival/Departure Record or Form I-94W Nonimmigrant Visa
Waiver Arrival/Departure Record. Those who need to prove their legal-visitor
status—to employers, schools/universities or government agencies—can access
their CBP arrival/departure record information online. CBP now gathers
travelers’ arrival/departure information automatically from their electronic
travel records.

Now at the land border, travelers will be issued I-94s electronically and will
no longer receive a paper I-94 stub. CBP encourages travelers requiring an I-94
to use the CBP One™ mobile app or the CBP I-94 website to apply for their I-94.
For Visa Waiver Program (VWP) travelers, an approved Electronic System for
Travel Authorization (ESTA) is now required for entry and must be obtained prior
to arriving at the U.S. land border. VWP travelers are encouraged to use the
I-94 website or CBP One™ mobile app to apply for an I-94 in advance.

If a traveler would like a paper Form I-94, the traveler can print their own
I-94 Form from the I-94 website using "Get Most Recent I-94" or by using the
same option on the CBP One™ mobile application. A paper form can be requested
during the inspection process but all such requests will be accommodated in a
secondary setting.

If travelers need the information from their Form I-94 admission record to
verify immigration status or employment authorization, they are encouraged to
get their I-94 Number from the I-94 website or by using the CBP One™ mobile app.
Upon exiting the U.S., travelers issued a paper Form I-94 should surrender it to
the commercial carrier, Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA), or to CBP upon
departure. If you received an electronic I-94 upon arrival by air or sea or land
and depart via land, your departure may not be recorded accurately. A departure
will be recorded if you depart via land and re-enter the United States prior to
the expiration date stamped in your passport. If you are not a resident of
Canada or Mexico and you receive an electronic I-94 and depart via land but do
not re-enter the United States prior to the expiration date stamped on your
passport, you may want to travel with evidence of your departure into Canada or
Mexico. Evidence of departure can include, but is not limited to, entry stamps
in a passport, transportation tickets, pay stubs and/or other receipts. A
traveler can request an entry stamp from CBSA when entering Canada or from the
Instituto Nacional de Migracion (INM) when entering Mexico.

Otherwise, when leaving via air or sea, CBP will record the departure
electronically via manifest information provided by the carrier or by CBP.

This automation streamlines the entry process for travelers, facilitates
security and reduces federal costs. CBP estimates that the automated process
will save the agency $15.5 million a year.

For more information and for answers to frequently asked questions, see the I-94
Fact Sheet.

The CBP INFO Center offers questions and answers for I-94.


NOTICE

Beginning in May 2019, I-94 numbers will be alphanumeric. Currently, I-94
numbers are 11 digits long and only contain numbers. In order to minimize
program impact resulting from the depletion of numeric-only I-94 numbers and to
create a long-term solution for the creation of new numbers, CBP is switching to
alphanumeric I-94s. I-94 numbers will remain at 11 characters but will follow
the format of 9 digits, followed by a letter in the 10th position, and a digit
in the 11th position. Unexpired I-94s issued in the current numeric-only format
will continue to be valid until the Admit Until Date printed on the paper I-94
and/or the date displayed on the I-94 website.
