Step 1 - Apply for U.S./Canada FAST
You must first apply for the FAST program through the DHS Trusted Traveler Programs website. You will be asked to pay a $50 fee for a 5 year membership. You will also have to fill out questions regarding your background.
Note: FAST (Free and Secure Trade) is designed for commercial truck drivers who frequently cross the U.S.-Canada border. It provides expedited customs and immigration clearance for commercial carriers.
Start Your FAST ApplicationStep 2 - Wait for conditional approval
After your application has been submitted, you will have to wait for conditional approval. Conditional approval means that you have been pre approved for the FAST program, but you need to schedule an interview to finalize your application.
The conditional approval process can take anywhere from 24 hours to multiple months, depending on the volume of applications, your background, etc.
Step 3 - Schedule Your FAST interview
