All travelers must have individual passports. It is not acceptable (for the VWP) for children to be included on a parent's passport.<ref name=":0">{{cite web | url=http://canberra.usembassy.gov/visa_waiver_prog.html | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120302015254/http://canberra.usembassy.gov/visa_waiver_prog.html|archive-date=March 2, 2012 | title=Visa Waiver Program {{!}} Embassy of the United States Canberra, Australia | date=2012-03-02 | access-date=2020-02-22}}</ref>

In principle, the passport must be valid for six months beyond the expected date of departure from the United States. However, the United States has agreements with a large number of countries to waive this requirement, including all VWP countries except Brunei.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://fam.state.gov/FAM/09FAM/09FAM040309.html#M403_9_3_B_2|title=9 FAM 101.1 INTRODUCTION TO 9 FAM | website=fam.state.gov | access-date=February 6, 2017}}</ref><ref name=":0" />
