Do I need an ESTA to visit the U.S?

You need a valid ESTA to travel to the US if you are a beneficiary of the Visa Waiver Program. It is not necessary to have a valid American visa if you plan a trip that will last for up to 90 days. If you already have a valid visa, there is no need to obtain an ESTA. However, it should be noted that an ESTA is not equal to an American visa. In circumstances where you may be required to have a valid visa, you will need to acquire one from any office of the American Customs and Border Protection.
