Overview of This Information Collection
Title: Trusted Traveler Programs and U.S. APEC Business Travel
Card.
OMB Number: 1651-0121.
Form Number: 823S (SENTRI) and 823F (FAST).
Current Actions: Revision of an existing information collection.
Type of Review: Revision.
Affected Public: Individuals and Businesses.
Abstract: This collection of information is for CBP's Trusted
Traveler Programs including the Secure Electronic Network for Travelers
Rapid Inspection (SENTRI), which allows expedited entry at specified
southwest land border ports of entry; the Free and Secure Trade program
(FAST), which provides expedited border processing for known, low-risk
commercial drivers; and Global Entry which allows pre-approved, low-
risk, air travelers dedicated processing clearance upon arrival into
the United States.
The purpose of all of these programs is to provide prescreened
travelers expedited entry into the United States. The benefit to the
traveler is less time spent in line waiting to be processed. These
Trusted Traveler programs are provided for in 8 CFR 235.7 and 235.12.
This information collection also includes the U.S. APEC Business
Travel Card (ABTC) Program, which is a voluntary program that allows
U.S. citizens to use fast-track immigration lanes at airports in the 20
other Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) member countries. This
program is mandated by the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Business
Travel Cards Act of 2011, Public Law 112-54 and provided for by 8 CFR
235.13.
These collections of information include the data collected on the
applications and kiosks for these programs. Applicants may apply to
participate in these programs by using the Trusted Traveler Program
Systems website (TTP) at <a href="https://ttp.cbp.dhs.gov/">https://ttp.cbp.dhs.gov/</a> or at Trusted
Traveler Enrollment Centers.
After arriving at the Federal Inspection Services area of the
airport, participants in Global Entry can undergo a self-serve
inspection process using a Global Entry kiosk. During the self-service
inspection, participants have their photograph and fingerprints taken,
submit identifying information, and answer several questions about
items they are bringing into the United States. When using the Global
Entry kiosks, participants are required to declare all articles being
brought into the United States pursuant to 19 CFR 148.11.
Proposed Changes:
CBP will be updating the Trusted Travel Programs to align with the
U.S. Department of State's Passport Options: CBP will modify the
Trusted Traveler Program application by adding a third gender marker,
``X'' for applicants identifying as non-binary, intersex, and/or gender
non-conforming (in addition to the existing ``male and ``female''
gender markers). The ``X'' marker will be categorized as ``Unspecified
or Another Gender Identity'', in the document sections of the
electronic Trusted Traveler Programs application.
