How to Find Your Global Entry Expiration Date By timing your Global Entry interview and approval date after your birthday, you will have Global Entry (and TSA Precheck) for close to 6 years rather than 5 years. My sister’s birthday is in March so her Global Entry expired in March, 2019 even though we both interviewed and we were approved on that same date.įor those who apply for Global Entry and need to schedule your Global Entry interview, it might be a good idea to schedule your Global Entry interview shortly after your birthday in order to maximize the amount of time your Global Entry is valid for. If my birthday was in December for example, I would have had Global Entry for only 5 years and 1 month. Because of this particular rule, I had Global Entry for almost 5 years and 11 months before it was time to renew. Since my birthday is in October, my Global Entry expired 5 years after the first birthday after the approval date (October, 2014) with an expiration date of October, 2019. Depending on your interview date and date of birth, your Global Entry membership will be valid for at least 5 years – but could valid almost 6 years after the date you are approved.įor example, my sister and I both applied for Global Entry on June, 2013 but our interview was scheduled and we were approved in November, 2013. Global Entry expires 5 years after your next birthday following the date you are first approved for Global Entry. However, the expiration date of Global Entry is actually based on your birthday which means that some people end up having Global Entry for almost 6 years after their initial approval date. The most obvious assumption is that Global Entry expires 5 years after the date you applied and paid the $100 application fee OR 5 years after the interview and final approval date. Most people know that Global Entry is good for 5 years but are unclear when those 5 years start. There is some confusion about how long does Global Entry last.
