Under certain circumstances you can travel visa free.
Your trip is for holiday or business (other than employment, paid or unpaid) or transit.
Your trip is for less than 90 days.
You have a return/onward ticket on a carrier participating in the VWP to a destination outside of Canada, Mexico or the adjacent islands unless you are a permanent resident of these areas.
You have not been denied admission into the U.S. or overstayed on a previous visit.
You have not been deported or required to leave the U.S. by the U.S.C.I.S.
You have not been arrested or convicted for any offence or crime, no matter how long ago the offence may have taken place, and even if you were subject of a pardon, amnesty, or other legal action.
You have never been afflicted with a communicable disease of public health significance, a dangerous physical or mental disorder with a requisite display of harmful behavior, or been a drug abuser or addict
Your passport is valid for the duration of your stay in the United States.
Your passport is machine-readable
The correct information regarding changes in passport requirements are.
All passports must be machine readable.
All passports issued after october 26th 2005 Must have a digital photograph (i.e. you can see great britain written through the picture when held towards the light)
All passports issued after October 26th 2006 Must have the biometric chip.

If you're from the UK, you must have a biometric passport if issued after 26th October but machine readable is acceptable if issued before 26th October. You should also have no criminal record. If these conditions are met, you are allowed to visit the US under the Visa Waiver Program i.e. you do not need a visa. Immigration will allow you to stay in the US for anything up to 90 days - just check the stamp when you enter. Don't forget to complete your Green Card before you get to passport control.

you don't need a visa if your going on a holiday to the States and if your a citizen of the UK, you do however need a valid passport for everyone travelling including children. You might want to try looking up more info on an American website such as a US Embassy in the State you plan to travel too. US rules seem to change often due to the fact of this ever changing world we live in today. I'm a American and my husband is English....we don't need visas never have.

You don't need to get a visa to go - you fill in a form on the airplane

Check with the American embassy in your country to learn about visa requirements.

I think all you need is a passport. On the plane you fill out a form stating that you are only coming in for vacation. I would look at the USA's government regulations for travel website.

it mainly depends your country of origin. i know that when you are from Western Europe, especially the member states of the EU, you don't need a visa.
