It actually depends on your citizenship. If you hold a passport of one of the 36 countries which apply to the U.S. Visa Waiver Program you will just need to get an Arrival/Departure Record Form I-94W at the Canadian - U.S. land border at a fee of US$6.00. If you plan to take a flight the fee will be included in the flight ticket, however you will need to get a prior approval [ESTA] online free of charge at least three days prior to travel.. http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/travel/id_visa/esta/ .. Citizens who can make use of this program are passport holders of: Andorra, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brunei, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland. Italy, Japan, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Monaco, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, San Marino, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, South Korea, Sweden, Switzerland, or the United Kingdom. An e-passport with a microchip is required for citizen of the Czech Republic, Estonia, Greece, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Slovakia, or South Korea. http://travel.state.gov/visa/temp/without/without_1990.html .. Special entry procedures [without visa] are also granted for passport holders of Bermuda. http://www.travel.state.gov/visa/temp/without/without_1260.html#4 .. Based on the Compact of Free Association Act passport holders of the Marshall Island, Micronesia, or Palau are also granted visa-free stay. http://www.uscis.gov/files/pressrelease/Compacts_FS_021105.pdf .. http://www.uscis.gov/files/pressrelease/PalauFS21Jun07.pdf .. Passport holders of all other countries are required to obtain a prior visa to enter the United States.
