To retrieve your most recent I-94 form, your travel history, or apply online for a new I-94, the following information is needed. Enter the information exactly as it appears on the travel document that you used to enter the United States

Generally, this document is your passport or border crossing card, however certain individuals who did not have either of these documents at the time of their arrival can use their Alien Registration Number to search for their record on the I-94 website or CBP One™ mobile application and retrieve or print their most recent electronic I-94 form

Sample Passport

The name format on a passport can be ambiguous, the data in the Machine-Readable Zone (MRZ) at the base should be used instead. This data follows the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standard convention.

1. Passport Country of Issuance – Select your passport country of issuance corresponding to the country code appearing in zone 1 on the MRZ of your passport. The country of citizenship on your passport is the passport issuing authority regardless of the country from which the passport was physically obtained.
2. Passport Number – Enter your passport number from the MRZ of your passport as shown above in zone 2. The passport number may contain numbers and/or letters. Please closely distinguish between the two. Some commonly confused characters are the number zero (0) and letter ‘O’, and the number one (1) and letter ‘I’. When seeking travel history, you must enter the passport number from which you wish to obtain the history. Additionally, you may also enter your BCC or Alien Registration Number for certain individuals in the passport number field to search for their 10-year travel history and print their most recent electronic I-94 form on the I-94 website or CBP One™ mobile application.
3. Last/Surname – Enter your family name as shown in zone 3 on the MRZ of your passport. Note, the system WILL NOT accept special characters such as a tilde (~) or accent marks (`). Use only the alphabetic characters shown in the MRZ. If there are any chevrons (<) in the last name zone, enter spaces in place of the chevrons.
4. First (Given) Name – Enter your first (given) name as shown in zone 4 on the Machine-Readable Zone of your passport. Note, the system WILL NOT accept special characters such as a tilde (~) or accent marks (`). Use only the alphabetic characters shown in the MRZ.
