Important travel requirements
If you are heading to Las Vegas for the IBS then you must have travel authorisation to enter the US. Citizens of the UK are eligible to apply for an ESTA, which is quicker and easier to apply for than a visa. The ESTA will be automatically electronically linked to your passport and when you arrive in the US, the border agents will be able to see that you have an ESTA to enter the US.
