The GOES site seems to suggest it's straightforward ("Global Entry members may update their passport through their GOES account. This applies only to passports that do not include a name change.") - but I don't have experience so this may be incorrect (or US only)

Slightly OT but can anyone tell me if it's possible to add my Trusted Traveler number into a BA booking. I now get TSA Pre on my AA and UA bookings but I'm not clear how to get it on a BA booking ex-USA.

I realise the official policy is not to send Global Entry cards to non residents.
However a few people have stated that they will get the card anyway.
I suspect this is down to the DHS officer not knowing the difference.
Anyway has any non-resident (excluding Mexicans and Canadians) got one?
Just curious?

Since BA is not a participating carrier, you cannot get PreCheck on BA flights.

DHS will want to look at your passport at the interview, along with a Police Certificate from your home country. I'm not saying the DHS are all Rocket Scientists, but don't sell them short.

god I hope so, despite my begging and pleading, my girlfriend never sent off for the code, so my having GE has essentially been reduced in usefulness to not having to fill out a customs form...

Isnt this going to be less of a thing now? Last week I went via ORD and they had the APC kiosks for ESTA holders. Absolutely no queues at a place I have queued up to 2 hours earlier.
I heard these are now appearing for ESTA holders in other airports

The ones in Miami were mobbed on Monday with ESTA holders. Thankfully the Global Entry kiosks were completely empty just a little farther down the hall.
