These travelers must provide the required data elements electronically to CBP and obtain a travel authorization through ESTA before embarking on travel to the United States.

    Abstract: CBP proposes to revise the questions on CBP Form I-94W

collect more detailed information about health and security issues. CBP 
also proposes to remove some questions from CBP Form I-94W and ESTA 
that are no longer relevant.
    CBP Form I-94W is used to document a VWP traveler's admission into 
the United States at land ports of entry. It is filled out by aliens 
and is used to collect information on citizenship, residency, and 
contact information for aliens traveling under the Visa Waiver Program 
(VWP). The data elements collected on CBP Form I-94W enable DHS to 
perform its mission related to the screening of alien visitors for 
potential risks to national security, and the determination of 
admissibility to the United States.
    The Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) is the 
automated system that must be used by VWP travelers arriving at U.S. 
air and sea ports of entry. These travelers must provide the required 
data elements electronically to CBP and obtain a travel authorization 
through ESTA before embarking on travel to the United States.
