But do you just carry your pasport book everywere? That is really inconvenient...

Coming from a travel agent, it makes me cringe to hear you panic applying for the esta last minute. But also laugh. Love you guys! Also, you don't need to show it because it gets electronically attached to your passport number, so when they run your passport at immigration and check-in, it comes up and says that yes, you do have an approved one. Which is why you need to re-apply if your passport expires before your esta does. Same for the Canadian eta visa.

Watching this as a South Asian, this has to be the biggest priveledge flex i've heard from Connor 'just turn up where ever you want' .

The price of the US passport is ~twice as much as the price of a UK passport. In addition, until recently, travel to Mexico and Canada only required an ID such as a Driver's License.

In the US you can get an "enhanced" drivers license for a little bit extra, but way cheaper than a passport. This license acts as a passport to select countries that neighbor the US, giving access to an area of the planet that stretches from above the Arctic Circle to below the Tropic of Cancer, encompassing over 21.88 million square kilometers, which is 5x the size of the whole EU. Pre-9/11, you could access most of those countries without a passport. That's why Americans don't have them.

A VISA to visit the USA in 15 minutes? *laughs in +15 month process because Mexico*

Difference in culture, Garnt? No. Difference in distance to the nearest country.

a visa in minutes? man, if i want to go to the US i have to do a lengthy process,first, i have to pay for it, then i have to do an appointment to the US consulate (because of corona, the appointment is between the end of 2022 and beginning of 2024) in that appointment first they will get all my biometrics and on the 2nd day, i get an interview, if i pass the interview i give all my papers and get a visa, if by any chance the decide i cant get one, i will not get my money back. 3rd world problems i guess

It's not really a visa, people call it that because it functionally is the same. European tourist entry to the US is technically visa-free, you just need the esta, which is essentially just an electronic security questionnaire that is valid for two years and which usually gets accepted immediately unless some of your answers to the questions require further investigation. Pro-tip: when they ask you if you were a nazi operating in germany between 1932-1945, answer "No". Yes they will ask you even after you mention the fact you were born in the 1990s

A year or so before the lockdowns I visited the US and had to get through customs in New York to get a connecting flight. there was 4 different lines, one for US citizens where they almost walked through, people who had ESTA's for more than one time (my line as second time getting an ESTA), first time ESTA then none so really those actually immigrating . That last line looked like HELL compared to the others (mine took 20 minutes) wouldn't wish that one someone I hate. Though thanks to current times, doubt I'll experience that for at least 3 years.

Japanese passports are currently the most powerful in the world. That’s according to the migration and citizenship consultancy, Henley & Partners, which compiles a list of the world’s most potent passports four times a year - and the ones that allow holders to travel widely and visa-free come out on top. With a total of 193 potential visa-free destinations, Japanese passports are ranked the highest. Just one point behind is Singapore, with Germany and South Korea tied at third place.

You're welcome.

I think the ESTA is in the system. When you do the interview at the immigration they don't ask for it, but they challenge some answers you gave, like where are you staying and the purpose of the visit (or at leats that's what happened to me). Regarding some countries not having too many people with passport, in Portugal for e.g. we have ID cards. Unless you're visiting a country outside of the EU, you don't need a passport, just the ID card. And a passport costs around 60-100 euros to get (every 5 years). So most people I know don't have one, and only get one if (and when) travelling outside of the EU (or nowadays, to visit the UK).
