Name: Global Entry Interviews
Date: August 8, 2017 - August 11, 2017
Registration: Sorry, public registration for this event has been closed.
Event Description:
International travelers will have the opportunity to interview in Greater Des Moines (DSM) for Global Entry status and bypass long lines when re-entering the U.S. The Greater Des Moines Partnership will host the Department of Homeland Security on Aug. 8 through 11 to hold interviews for a maximum of 240 pre-approved Global Entry applicants at The Partnership. 

Global Entry is a program developed by U.S. Customs and Border Protection to expedite entry into the U.S. for low-risk, pre-screened international travelers at 40 major U.S. Airports. Upon arriving in the U.S., members can proceed directly to an automated Global Entry kiosk and bypass passport control lines and paper customs declarations. Travelers in DSM who wish to apply for Global Entry status normally must travel to Minneapolis or Chicago to interview, and are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity to interview locally. 

Those who wish to interview for Global Entry status must register with The Partnership by midnight on Monday, July 10 to begin the process. After registering, you will receive instructions on completing the application and scheduling an interview. Global Entry is open to U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents. The application and interview process is open to the public.
