Connection time calculator, immigration and security, and how to move between terminals at SLC.
At Salt Lake City airport, as at every airport in the United States, passengers arriving on an international flight must clear immigration (CBP) and customs, collect their checked bags and re-check them, and go through TSA security again before their connecting flight, even when both flights are on the same ticket.
The airport has 2 terminals or concourses (Concourse A, Concourse B). All of them are connected after security, so you do not need to clear security again to change.

Terminals / concourses: Concourse A, Concourse B
Getting between them: Walking through the underground walkways between Concourse A and Concourse B (moving walkways); the central River Tunnel opened in October 2024 shortens the walk
One terminal building with a single security checkpoint at the entrance to Concourse A. Concourses A and B are linked by two underground walkways, airside, so you do not clear security again between them.
Official transfer times:
There is no internal airside passport control. Arriving international passengers clear U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) on arrival.
Estimate based on typical times at this airport, not your airline's official minimum connection time. Immigration and security lines change with the time of day and season. On a single ticket, the airline must rebook you if you miss the connection; on separate tickets, it does not.
