How long is the United States ESTA valid for?

Your ESTA authorization is generally valid for multiple trips over a period of two years (starting the date that you are approved) or until your passport expires, whichever comes first. This means that as long as you received an ESTA authorization to travel, you do not have to reapply during the validity period.


If your ESTA expires while in the U.S. it will not affect your departure.
