Step-by-Step: How to Apply for ESTA
- Go to the official ESTA website: esta.cbp.dhs.gov — never use third-party sites charging higher fees.
- Click 'New Application' and select 'Individual Application'.
- Enter your Qatari passport details exactly as they appear in your document.
- Answer the eligibility questions covering criminal history, travel history, and health declarations.
- Pay the $21 fee using a credit or debit card.
- Submit your application and save your Application Number.
- Check your approval status — most applications are processed within minutes to 72 hours.
You will receive one of three responses: Authorization Approved, Travel Not Authorized, or Pending. Most Qatari nationals receive instant or same-day approval.
