Description

Mobile Passport Control (MPC) is an official application created by U.S. Customs and Border Protection that streamlines your CBP inspection process at select U.S. entry locations. Simply complete your travel information, answer CBP inspection questions, capture a photo of yourself and of each member of your group, and follow the instructions provided on your receipt.
Important Notes:
• MPC does not replace your passport; your passport will still be required for travel.
• MPC is only available at supported CBP entry locations.
• MPC is a voluntary program which can be used by U.S. Citizens, certain Canadian Citizen Visitors, Lawful Permanent Residents, and returning Visa Waiver Program applicants with an approved ESTA.
More information regarding eligibility and supported CBP entry locations can be found on our website: https://www.cbp.gov/travel/us-citizens/mobile-passport-control
MPC can be used in 6 simple steps:
1. Create a primary profile to save your travel documents and biographic information. You can add and save additional eligible people to the MPC app so that you can submit together from one device. Your information will be securely stored on your device to be used for future travel.
2. Select your CBP port of entry, terminal (if applicable), and add up to 11 additional members of your group to include in your submission.
3. Answer CBP inspection questions and certify the truthfulness and accuracy of your answers.
4. Upon arriving at your selected port of entry, tap the “Yes, Submit Now” button. You will be asked to capture a clear and unobstructed photo of yourself and of each other person that you included in your submission.
5. Once your submission is processed, CBP will send a virtual receipt back to your device. Follow the instructions on your receipt and be prepared to present your passport and other relevant travel documents.
6. The CBP Officer will complete the inspection. If further information is required, the CBP Officer will let you know. Please note: The CBP Officer may ask to capture an additional photo of you or your group members for verification.

Smooth & Easy

Downloaded MPC app day prior, instructions easy, you can preload your profile info, Canadian passport, US clearance airport & date of travel ahead of time, then just tap submit when you arrive at airport (entry valid 4 hours) MPC lane @ Vancouver, only 1 traveller in front of me..2 minutes US Customs clearance. Impressive US CBP!

Security

The App is good the security who check the app are rude, reckless unsupportive and unfriendly, the aim is to facilitate the process and not to humiliate the people

App ok but need to know before hitting the line

The app itself works better than before…BUT…there’s no reminders at the airport until you hit the customs line, and they WILL NOT let you do a submission once you’re there. Too late, too bad so sad. 5 minutes on the app would save over an hour in line but you better do it before you’re anywhere near that line

App shuts down

My experience is that the app shuts down as soon as I press ‘save’ after entering new traveller information. It does not save the data entered. I attempted 3 times, once by entering the data manually rather than scanning my passport. I give up.
