The best way to get an Official ESTA
Do I need a visa to travel to the United States? Not necessarily. In case you decide to stay in the country no longer than ninety days, you can enter the United States without a visa by accessing the Visa Waiver Program. The program provides ESTA authorization for entry and transit in the United States for tourism or business. To apply for an ESTA, you must be a citizen of one of the 36 countries participating in the Visa Waiver Program.
In the event that you cannot apply for Esta authorization, you will need to apply for a non-immigrant visa. The differences between an ESTA and a non-immigrant visa are represented by the length of stay and the application procedure.
The stay in the United States with a visa is extended up to a maximum of 6 months. To apply for a visa, it is necessary to go to the embassy and wait for the allotted times (which may vary according to the type of visa), while the ESTA authorisation application can be made online in a very short time.
What are the types of visas for the United States?
Depending on the purpose of your trip, you will be able to choose the most appropriate non-immigrant visa. Here are the types of visas to enter the United States
Visa type B: Tourism, business, medical treatment
If you are travelling to the USA for one of these reasons, the most suitable visa is the B type. This authorization is intended for citizens of those countries that are not members of the Visa Waiver program and for those who have been denied ESTA. B Visas can be requested by any traveller from any country (except for those countries included in the Black List such as Iran, Libya, Somalia, etc …)

If you cannot obtain Esta authorization, and you only need to transit through the United States through an airport, you should apply for a C1 visa
