When flying into the US, where do I go through customs? [duplicate] - Customer paying for taxi service in dollars

Flight from Atlanta to Minneapolis-St. Paul and connecting flight to Calgary. From Atlanta do I fly out of the domestic or international terminal? Where do I go thru customs?



Best Answer

Atlanta has only one terminal, domestic and international together. They do have separate check in lobbies, one for domestic and one for international, but flights to Canada are considered "domestic" (though they won't really care if you check in at the international lobby either).

You will clear immigration and customs in Calgary. There are no exit formalities from the USA.

Where do I go through customs flying to USA?

In the United States, you can find ports of entry by air, land or sea. Travelers must clear U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) at the first port of entry, if the final destination is in the United States.

Do you go through customs when returning to the US?

If you're flying to the United States, you may depart from a \u201cpre-clearance\u201d airport. This means you'll go through customs before you board your flight in the departing country and will not have to go through customs upon landing in the US.

How do I get through US Customs at airport?

Transit Security vs. Customs. In almost all cases, if your bags are checked through to your final destination and you already have your onward boarding pass, you'll go through transit security when you land at your connecting airport instead of customs.
