Pre-Clear U.S. Customs in Abu Dhabi
The United States Customs and Border Protection (CBP) facility at Terminal 3 in Abu Dhabi Airport is a purpose-built facility that allows U.S. bound passengers to undertake all immigration, customs and agriculture inspections in Abu Dhabi prior to departure.
Abu Dhabi Airport is one of only a handful of airports outside North America that offer the CBP facility. Having cleared CBP, guests can check-through their baggage to their final destination in the United States. On reaching the U.S., guests will be treated as domestic arrivals, which allows for faster processing at their arrival airport.
Etihad Airways operates flights to five destinations in the U.S. – New York (EY101 only), Chicago (EY151) Washington (EY131) Los Angeles (EY171) and Dallas (EY161)*. Guests flying to above destinations in the U.S. will use the CBP facility at Abu Dhabi Airport.
Please note: This service is not available for the Etihad Airways flight numbers EY103 to New York (JFK) or EY183 to San Francisco (SFO).
* Dallas flights from 3rd December 2104.
