Canadian citizens who are not lawful permanent residents of the United States are not eligible to enroll in Global Entry.

From the US CBP website:

Eligibility for Global Entry

I am not sure of the practicality of applying for it from abroad and/or by someone who was not born and has never lived in the UK.

That's probably a subject best discussed in the UK Citizens Global Entry Applications and Renewals Procedures & Timelines thread.

My hunch is that applying for NEXUS will be easier.

Thanks, that's a good point. I forgot about the additional Border Force step.

I've gone ahead and applied for NEXUS.

Appreciate the comments in this thread, thanks.
