Global Entry

A U.S. Department of Homeland Security Trusted Traveler Program that provides expedited U.S. customs screening for international air travelers entering the United States.

Illustrative example

Hypothetical scenario: a member returning from Paris (CDG) to Minneapolis (MSP) uses Global Entry for U.S. arrival processing. TSA PreCheck concerns a different stage of air travel: security screening before departure.

Context

Global Entry members also receive TSA PreCheck benefits, which concern airport security screening for departures from U.S. airports.
