USA still insists everyone apply for a visa waiver on line and pay a fee before travelling.
Not very friendly.
Yanandu.
european passport my a**polaks still need visas to USA.
i may have to go there to renew my passport. and shopping, of course. besides, i want to visit the country where i am going to be the thinnest person around!
You will have an easier time getting a visitor visa through Poland than you will as a DR resident.
And a lovely a** it is!! Talk to the agent, no matter what. I don't think that it will make much difference where you live. But maybe Frank knows something I don't...
However, just the hassle of getting a visa..ugh!! You need to get a PIN number etc etc....and remember that the Consulate observes both Dominican and US holidays.

Mike, she wants to SHOP!!! And NYC or DC or Miami are actually worth the visit,,,, (wouldn't want to live there, mind you)
Hilarious. And how is this any worse than being charged $10 every time you visit a country? At least the ESTA is good for two years and serves a specific useful purpose
And not all Europeans qualify for Visa Waiver. (not even all EU countries!) Poland, Romania, Bulgaria are notable exceptions.

i am a resident here but a polak first. it should make no difference where i apply. or should it?
not to mention that i need a visa to USA to AVOID expensive trip to poland (two trips, in fact) in order to renew my passport.

Let me know if you decide to visit DC area. Not everyone is the same here

In theory, it should not matter where a Polish citizen applies for a visa to the US. However, you do know that you are in the DR where the embassy is very used to saying no.
Please do give the US consul on POP a call before you go through the procedure because it is indeed a very annoying one. Just to make sure there is no problem for you to apply here, etc, etc.
That is the best advice I can give from one "genetic" Pole (me) to a naturally born one (you). Shopping is a very good reason to go. The US needs the money.
I've been a little confused about this. So even if someone is in a visa waiver program (Italy) they still need to apply for a visitor visa to visit the US?
Thanks, I've read this a few times and get stuck on this part
As of January 12, 2009, a valid ESTA approval is required for all Visa Waiver Program (VWP) to travel to the United States. The Department of Homeland Security, Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) is an automated system used to determine the eligibility of visitors to travel to the United States under the VWP. It collects the same information as the paper I-94W form that VWP travelers fill out en route to the United States. ESTA applications may be submitted at any time prior to travel. An ESTA authorization generally will be valid for up to two years. Authorizations will be valid for multiple entries into the United States. DHS recommends that travelers submit an ESTA application as soon as they begin making travel plans.
so not a visitor visa but they still have to have this ESTA authorization?
I found the answer.
If you are a citizen of a country that participates in the Visa Waiver Program (VWP), and you enter the U.S. by land from Mexico or Canada, you are only required to complete the paper I-94W form at the land border crossing. ESTA is currently required for air and cruise ship travel only.
