Newark Liberty International Airport has three passenger terminals. Terminal A and Terminal B were completed in 1973 and have a four-level layout, with ticket counters on the top floor (with the exception of Air India, whose ticket counters are on the second floor), gates and shops are on the third floor, an international arrivals lounge (Terminal B) and baggage carousels (both A and B) are on the second level. Finally, short-term parking and ramp operations (restricted areas) are on the ground floor. Terminal C, completed in 1988, has two departures levels, one for international check-in and one for domestic check-in, with the gates and food and shopping outlets located on a mezzanine between the two check-in floors. It's worth noting that extensive renovations were completed in Terminal C from 1998-2003. The baggage claim area was renovated, and turned into a second departure level, splitting departures into International Floor/Domestic Floor, a third Concourse was added, an International Arrivals facility was added, and a 3,400 space parking garage, and new baggage processing facilities were added, including turning the former underground parking area into a new baggage claim (parking had been prohibited underneath the terminal as a security measure after the first attack on the World Trade Center in 1993.)

Each terminal is subdivided into three numbered concourses: Terminal A, for instance, is divided into concourses A1, A2, and A3. Gate numbering is continuous through all the terminals.

Terminal A is the only terminal at Newark not fitted with immigration facilities: flights arriving from other countries (except Canada) cannot use Terminal A, although some departing international flights use the terminal.
