Why people get stuck
You can apply on your own. It just takes more than most people expect.
Global Entry and SENTRI are worth having, but the application is long, strict and easy to get wrong. Here is where people most often run into trouble.
A small error can mean starting over
A missing detail, a name that doesn't match your passport or the wrong document can cause delays or a denial. A denial means going back to the beginning.
Interviews take planning
After conditional approval you need an in-person interview. SENTRI applicants who register a vehicle also need a vehicle inspection. Openings vary by location.
Status checks and time limits
Updates arrive in a government portal you have to keep checking, and once you are conditionally approved there is a deadline to complete your interview.
What we help with
Two programs. One team that knows them inside out.
Global Entry
Quicker entry into the United States when you return from abroad, for pre-approved, low-risk travelers. Members also get TSA PreCheck at U.S. airports.
- Eligibility check before you start
- Application completed with you and reviewed before submission
- Interview help, including Enrollment on Arrival
$397 per applicant

- Eligibility check before you start
- Application completed with you and reviewed before submission
- Vehicle registration and inspection guidance

Which program is right for you?
Global Entry or SENTRI: it depends on how you travel.
Not sure? We will help you choose on your free consultation, based on where and how often you cross.
| Global Entry | SENTRI | |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | Travelers who fly into the U.S. from abroad | Frequent crossings at the U.S.-Mexico land border |
| Where you use it | Participating U.S. airports and preclearance airports abroad | Dedicated SENTRI lanes at southern land border crossings |
| Who can apply | U.S. citizens, U.S. permanent residents and citizens of select partner countries | U.S. citizens, U.S. permanent residents and many foreign nationals |
| Interview | At an enrollment center, or Enrollment on Arrival at participating airports | At a SENTRI enrollment center, plus a vehicle inspection if you register a vehicle |
| Also includes | TSA PreCheck, and SENTRI lanes once you register a vehicle | TSA PreCheck, NEXUS lanes into the U.S. from Canada, and Global Entry for U.S. citizen and permanent resident members |
| Membership | 5 years | 5 years |

Is GTIA right for you?
We are a great fit for some people, and not for everyone.
We would rather tell you now than have you pay for help you don't need.
A great fit if you
- Fly internationally or drive across the U.S.-Mexico border a few times a year
- Are busy and would rather not spend hours on government forms
- Want an expert to check everything before it is submitted
- Are applying for several family members at once
- Find the interview booking process confusing or frustrating
- Started an application on your own and got stuck
Probably not for you if you
- Are comfortable completing the application yourself. You can apply at ttp.cbp.dhs.gov
- Only fly within the U.S. TSA PreCheck alone may be enough, at tsa.gov/precheck
- Have a history that may make you ineligible. We will tell you honestly on your free call
- Want a guaranteed approval or faster government processing. No one can offer that

What our clients say
Real reviews from travelers our team has helped.
★★★★★
“The Canada/US interviews were scheduled easily”
Although I was very skeptical at first and the process did take longer than anticipated, they have done a great job of keeping me in the loop regarding the progress/status of my application throughout. The Canada/US interviews were scheduled easily and all the associated documents/directions/instructions were clear and easy to follow.

Prefer to do it yourself?
That is completely fine. You can apply for Global Entry and SENTRI directly with U.S. Customs and Border Protection at ttp.cbp.dhs.gov. If you start and find it harder than expected, we are happy to help.
Questions
Answers to what people ask us most.
Are you part of the government?
No. GTIA Services is a private company that helps people prepare and submit their applications. We are not affiliated with CBP, TSA or any government agency. You can always apply directly with the government yourself.
Can I apply on my own?
Yes, at ttp.cbp.dhs.gov, and many people do. Our clients choose us to save time, avoid mistakes that cause delays or denials, and get help with interviews and follow-up.
What is the difference between Global Entry and SENTRI?
Global Entry speeds up your return to the U.S. when you fly in from abroad, and includes TSA PreCheck. SENTRI gives you dedicated lanes when you drive into the U.S. at the U.S.-Mexico land border, and U.S. citizen and permanent resident members also get Global Entry benefits. We help you choose on your free consultation.
Do I also need TSA PreCheck?
Usually not. Global Entry and SENTRI members can use TSA PreCheck by adding their membership number to airline bookings as their Known Traveler Number. If you only fly within the U.S., TSA PreCheck on its own may be all you need, and you can enroll directly at tsa.gov/precheck.
How much does your service cost?
Our service fee is $397 per applicant for Global Entry and $297 per applicant for SENTRI, in U.S. dollars. Each additional family member is $100 less.
How long does the process take?
We submit your complete application within 30 days of signing up. After that, the government sets the timeline and it varies. We track your application and keep you updated at every step.
What happens if my application is denied?
If your application is denied, we refund our service fee under our approval-or-refund promise. Some conditions apply, such as information being withheld or a missed interview. The full details are in our Terms of Service.
Can my whole family apply together?
Yes. Each family member needs their own application, including children. We prepare them together so everyone moves through the process at the same time. Each additional family member is $100 less and gets their own LoungePair membership.
Do you help with NEXUS?
Not at this time. GTIA Services helps with Global Entry and SENTRI. You can apply for NEXUS directly at ttp.cbp.dhs.gov.
