This month, US Customs and Border Protection introduced their new Automated Passport Control (APC) kiosks at the Edmonton Airport pre clearance US entry facility. The new kiosks are intended to expedite the entry process by eliminating the need to fill out the blue paper customs declaration form. US and Canadian passport holders and international visitors from Visa Waiver Program countries are eligible to use APC kiosks. The kiosks can even be used by more than one person at a time, if they live at the same address. There are five steps to the automated process: scan your passport, take your photo using the APC kiosk, answer the customs declaration questions using the touchscreen, collect your receipt and proceed to a USCBP officer to complete the process. APC is a free service and does not require pre-registration or membership. If you are an I-194 waiver holder and used the kiosk, please leave a comment about your experience.
