渡米に向けたe-Visa(ESTA)
米国でのe-VisaはESTA(電子渡航認証システム)と呼ばれており、ESTAは明確にはe-Visaではありませんが他国で使用されているe-Visaの概念と類似しています。ESTAはオンライン渡航認証システムとして機能し、ビザ免除プログラム(VWP)加盟国からの渡航者へビザを取得することなく米国に短期滞在する資格を与えます。それと同じように世界各国で導入されているe-Visaもオンラインプラットフォームを通じて渡航認証が行われることから、パスポートに実際のスタンプが押されることなく入国することが可能になります。ESTAを受ける資格があるかどうかを確認するには、上記の資格確認フォームをご覧ください。
ESTAはe-Visaの一種ですか?
ESTAもe-Visaもパスポートに従来のスタンプが押されることなく渡航を許可する電子渡航認証システムですが、以下のようなそれぞれのシステムが持つ目的や範囲に微妙な違いがあります:
適用範囲:
- ESTA:電子渡航認証システムは米国固有のものであることから、VWP加盟国からの渡航者にのみ適用されます。
- e-Visa:e-Visaはより広範な概念を持つことから世界各国で幅広く実施されており、各国は特定の資格基準および要件を備えたe-Visaプログラムを実施しています。
申請資格:
- ESTA:VWP加盟国から観光、ビジネス、トランジット目的で短期滞在(90日以内)を希望する旅行者はESTAを申請する資格があります。
- e-Visa:e-Visaの申請資格は各国が定める訪問目的、申請者の国籍、その国の移民政策によって大きく異なります。
滞在期間:
- ESTA:ESTAで承認された渡航者は1度の訪問につき最長で90日間米国に滞在できます。
- e-Visa:e-Visaで許可される滞在期間は発給国の規定によって異なり、機関は数日から数ヶ月に及ぶ場合があります。
有効期間:
- ESTA:一旦承認されたESTAの有効期間は通常2年間であるが、旅行者のパスポートの有効期限が切れると再度発行が必要になります。この2年の間であれば渡航者は何度でも短期間の米国訪問が可能になります。
- e-Visa:e-Visaの有効期間は発給国によって大きく異なります。e-Visaの中には定められた期間で一度のきりの訪問しか認めていないものもあれば、一度の申請を行えば長期間何度でも訪問可能な場合があります。
