About this app

CBP Link is a mobile application that grants you access to a variety of services provided by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), including:


• Check Border Wait Times: Use the app to check estimated wait times and open lane status 24/7 at land ports of entry.
• Apply for a Provisional I-94: The I-94 Entry feature allows travelers to apply for a provisional I-94 prior to arriving at a land border crossing. Travelers who apply for their I-94 ahead of time will experience faster processing times to expedite entry. Travelers can also quickly access their current I-94 submission to view critical information such as, how long they can remain in the U.S., and use it for proof of visitor status once in the United States.
• Request an Inspection of Agriculture or Biological Products: If you are a traveler arriving at an airport of entry, you can request an inspection of biological materials, cleaning and disinfection of shoes worn on a farm or near livestock, or food items (e.g. fresh fruits and vegetables, meats), live animals (pets, service animals, emotional support animals), or hunting trophies.
• Submit a Travelers Manifest for Bus Operators: Create and submit an advance traveler manifest in compliance with the advance passenger information systems requirements.


Through a series of guided questions, the app directs you to the appropriate services based on your needs. The CBP Link mobile application is FREE to use and available to everyone who has access to a mobile device.

Doesn't work yet for anything. Uninstalling for now. Tried using the Sea option for port arrival after a cruise and got the following message "Coming Soon. This feature is coming soon. Additional services will be rolled out over the next year." Also tried the Land and Air options and got the same message. Ended up having to download another app, MPC CBP (Mobile Passport Control), instead which worked.

The application on iOS, when reading the passport, should read it through the camera, and it can read it. However, when scanning the NFC chip, an error occurs indicating that it could not be read, and it asks to read it again. Please fix this because we tested with external applications, and they can read the NFC chip. If this step is not completed, it does not allow us to proceed.

This app is worthless. My beneficiary has been trying to get the pic accepted all week, tries for 8 hours or more everyday. It accepts the passport, scans face, then gives an error message, eventually timing out. She uses full light with a strong internet connection, still nothing but error messages.ALL DAY Long, she tries over and over again. I email the help desk. No reply. I email the escalation desk...no reply. Need another way for the adv. travel auth. for process for Nicaraguans plse
