Using ESTA a second time - first for tourism, now for transit

Upvote:3

I had the same situation about one year ago. I had a layover in ORD for my trip from LHR to CUN and I had a valid ESTA. I just modified the application with the new flights information and 'TRANSIT' in the US address.

The last rule refers to the yes and no boxes you have to tick, e.g. did you ever get deported. The transit checkbox is not part of the yes/no boxes. In fact, you don't even need to update the application at all while your esta is valid.

So if nothing changed except the fact that you are there for a transit, then no, you don't need to apply again.

The checkboxes:
