Why is my Global Entry taking so long?
Why is my Global Entry taking so long? Travelers applying for Global Entry, including new members, should expect delays in application processing times, which U.S. Customs and Border Protection says can take up to 11 months. Longer-than-normal wait times are due to an average of 317,000 new members monthly — an average that has nearly doubled since 2022.
