 TITLE: The Best Travel Credit Cards for Global Entry CONTENT: How Do You Apply for Global Entry?\n----------------------------------\nGlobal Entry is available to U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents as well as citizens from certain other countries, such as Germany, Singapore and the U.K. among others. To apply, you must first create a Trusted Traveler Program (TTP) profile online. After that, you will need to complete an application form with information including your recent home addresses, any criminal record and all the countries you have traveled to in the past five years. Once you have filled out the online form, you have to pay a non-refundable $100 application fee.\nIf your application is conditionally approved, you will then need to set up an in-person interview at a Global Entry enrollment center, many of which are at airports and border crossings. You must bring your valid passport and another form of identification with you, such as a driver's license or permanent residency card. A customs officer will ask you questions to verify your identity and the information on your application, then fingerprint you and take your photo.\nThe appointment should take around 15 minutes and you will probably be notified of the decision immediately, after which you should be able to use the services when you return to the U.S. from abroad. It can take a few weeks for your Trusted Traveler card to arrive in the mail, though. END
