So, arrived into MCO 26th November.
queued up for CBP and asked to do EOA. went through CBP, then we’re asked to wait. then we were called back to one of the booths for the EOA. They closed the booth to customs checks. Did the EOA in 25 mins, and within an hour our approvals were confirmed in our Global entry. very easy and very quick. They also cancelled our appointments at Sanford. |
If I fly transborder, can I do interview on arrival for Global Entry application?
To be specific, my transborder flights are:
ORD-YYZ-YYC YYC-EWR-IND Is there any location that I can do interview on arrival for Global Entry application? |
Look on the CPB website. There is a list. EWR has to be on the list. Not sure about YYZ.

Enrollment on Arrival allows Global Entry applicants who are conditionally approved to complete their interviews upon arrival in the United States. The only flight on your itinerary which qualifies is YYC-EWR. EWR has two EoA locations, Terminal B, 5:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., and Terminal C, 11:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.
From https://www.cbp.gov/travel/trusted-t...llment-arrival : Calgary International Airport (YYC) Location: Concourse E, Booth 19 2000 Airport Road NE Calgary, Alberta T2E 6Z8, Canada Hours of Operation: 4:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. |

On a YYC-EWR itinerary, wouldn't the opportunity for EoA be at YYC?

From https://www.cbp.gov/travel/trusted-t...llment-arrival : For flights subject to CBP Preclearance at airports abroad: “enrollment on arrival” is not available in the US; the “EOA” for CBP Preclearance flights’ passengers would have to be done at the CBP Preclearance airport (if/when available at the non-US airport). Passengers arriving at US airports from Canada do not get a chance to do EOA at the US airport unless arriving on a flight not subjected to CBP Preclearance in Canada. That is because CBP Preclearance-cleared passengers (e.g., YYC-EWR passengers) generally end up skipping the CBP FIS area upon arrival to the US airport. On the other hand, YYG-US passengers end up in the CBP FIS upon arrival to the US airport because YYG is not a Preclearance airport. |
Entry On Arrival - Open Xmas Day?
Hi All,
Anyone know if appointment on arrival is available on Christmas Day? Conditionally approved but appointment is not for ages Flying into LAX from abroad and figured it would be a nice bonus if it was open. Could not find out online. Anyone know? Thanks in advance! |
Dublin airport Global Entry enrolment on arrival EoA) - help?
Hey all,
Probably wrong forum so please move as appropriate. Flying to DUB and have all the necessary Global Entry approvals. However cannot work out where on earth the Entrolment on Arrival (EoA) works? Does anyone have experience and can assist? I've been Googling for ages and all I can find are tales of woe. Note: flight is UK to Ireland, so it's not domestic, but it's not from USA if that affects potential for EoA. Thanks! |
I’m fairly sure you have to be flying to the US as it’s in the pre-clearance area.
As it’s a pre-clearance it’s really enrolment on departure. |
As far as I know this can only be done at US immigration. At Dublin this is done on departure for a flight to US, so unless you are travelling on to US, I don’t believe you will be able to do it.
Attached link may help. https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/trus...t-arrival.html |
Ok thanks for the answers. If anyone knows a hack let me know!

The only potential way I could think of is if you booked a flight to the US from DUB on a rate that’s fully refundable, you go through US pre-clearance and then something important comes up after that which means you can’t fly and must instead fly somewhere else (e.g. London).
However I would NOT recommend you doing this. I can’t imagine the US immigration officer being amused if they find out this is your plan and I don’t know how easy it is for you to exit the pre-clearance area and back into Ireland. You would have to ensure that your immigration record was updated to reflect the fact you never actually entered the US otherwise you’d have problems in the future. So in short it’s not worth the risk. If you have time maybe a short trip to NYC from DUB would be in order. I need to do my GE interview too and I hadn’t thought about the DUB option until you mentioned it but if I do that I will combine it with a trip to the US |

In this context, "Arrival" is when you present yourself to US Immigration for admission to the United States. If your flight departs from DUB with a destination in the US, you'd handle US Customs in DUB. That's where EoA is available - when flying to the US.

It’s Enrollment on ARRIVAL (to the US). If you’re flying into Dublin and you don’t have a US plane ticket, then you won’t have access to the US Pre-clearance (CBP) facility.

I am flying from FRA to MCO end of march, having a 90 minutes layover in Washington. I saw a comment of 2019 that did confuse me. It seems like - at least at that time - an EOA would be possible but I should follow the sign "No connection flights". Is that still correct? And if so do get into any trouble if I want to connect after the clearance? Also 90 minutes is not a lot. Do you think that the process is doable within that time? Thanks!
