CBP Link is a mobile application that grants you access to a variety of services provided by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), including: • Check Border Wait Times: Use the app to check estimated wait times and open lane status 24/7 at land ports of entry. • Apply for a Provisional I-94: The I-94 Entry feature allows travelers to apply for a provisional I-94 prior to arriving at a land border crossing. Travelers who apply for their I-94 ahead of time will experience faster processing times to expedite entry. Travelers can also quickly access their current I-94 submission to view critical information such as, how long they can remain in the U.S., and use it for proof of visitor status once in the United States. • Request an Inspection of Agriculture or Biological Products: If you are a traveler arriving at an airport of entry, you can request an inspection of biological materials, cleaning and disinfection of shoes worn on a farm or near livestock, or food items (e.g. fresh fruits and vegetables, meats), live animals (pets, service animals, emotional support animals), or hunting trophies. • Submit a Travelers Manifest for Bus Operators: Create and submit an advance traveler manifest in compliance with the advance passenger information systems requirements. Through a series of guided questions, the app directs you to the appropriate services based on your needs. The CBP Link mobile application is FREE to use and available to everyone who has access to a mobile device.
