A Global Entry card itself does not have a redress number. However, if you're experiencing difficulties or delays during travel screening processes due to being mistakenly matched to a name on a watchlist, you can apply for a Redress Number through the Department of Homeland Security's Traveler Redress Inquiry Program (DHS TRIP). This number can be entered when booking flights and applying for trusted traveler programs like Global Entry to help differentiate you from individuals on the watchlist.
