CBP One App

The U.S. government encourages nonimmigrant visitors to download the free CBP One app, offered by Customs and Border Protection. The app allows visitors to apply and pay for an I-94 using a mobile phone.

CBP One allows users to apply for an I-94 up to seven days before arriving at a port of entry. It also lets travelers check the status of an existing Trusted Travelers Program application or membership, among other features.

You can download CBP One on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. A free Login.gov account is required.
