Where is TSA number on back of Global Entry card?
There are two 9-digit numbers on the back of the Global Entry card. The one on the upper left corner is the Known Traveler Number or PASSID. But on the upper right hand corner there is another 9-digit number, slightly larger than the PASSID. What is the purpose of this second 9-digit number?
Can I show my Global Entry card for TSA PreCheck?
No. To receive TSA PreCheck®, you must include your Known Traveler Number (your CBP PASSID for Global Entry, NEXUS, or SENTRI members) in the appropriate field of your airline reservation, and the TSA PreCheck® indicator must be displayed on the boarding pass to access the lanes.
Which is better TSA PreCheck or Global Entry?
If you mostly travel domestically and want access to expedited security screening, TSA PreCheck may make sense for you. If you travel internationally and want access to faster customs screening upon reentry to the U.S., consider Global Entry, which includes TSA PreCheck, instead.
How do I check my TSA PreCheck status?
To check your TSA PreCheck status, consider the following: Visit the TSA PreCheck website and click on the Check Status button. Enter your full name, date of birth and passport number or your Known Traveler Number (KTN).
What do you skip with Global Entry?
Global Entry is everything that TSA PreCheck is and more. If you have Global Entry, you'll automatically also get TSA PreCheck and all of its benefits. On top of that, you'll get to avoid the general customs line when returning to the U.S. from abroad.
