US Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff said visitors to the US who do not need visas will be required to register with the government online.
The security regulation, set to begin next year, will require visitors to register three days before they visit.
The online registration will remain valid for a two-year period, Chertoff said.
He said the changes - which will affect citizens of the 27 countries currently listed under the US visa waiver programme - will allow the US to screen visitors before they travel.
'That information includes passport number, country of residence, and any involvement in terror activities.'
