Compliance Deadline is Near for Private Aircraft Border Crossing Flights
Notice Number: NOTC1646
The Deadline is Approaching for Compliance With the New Department of
Homeland Security Rule Affecting Private Aircraft on International Flights
On December 18, 2008, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), U.S. Bureau
of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) issued a new rule that affects
private aircraft operating on international flights. The rule, Title 19 CFR
Part 122, is titled 'Advanced Information on Private Aircraft Arriving and
Departing the United States'. Compliance with this new regulation has been
voluntary since December 18, 2008, however, compliance becomes mandatory
effective May 18, 2009. The DHS Final Rule can be viewed at:
http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/2008/pdf/E8-26621.pdf
Beginning May 18, 2009, all general aviation flights arriving into or
departing out of the U.S. require the pilot to electronically submit crew
and passenger manifests and other flight information to the CBP at least 60
minutes prior to departure. This information must be submitted to the CBP
using their Electronic Advance Passenger Information System (eAPIS) website
or through an authorized third party vendor. This new rule does not apply
to domestic flights.
Pilots failing to meet these reporting requirements can be fined $5,000 for
the first violation and $10,000 for each subsequent violation.
Pilots are encouraged to become familiar with the CBP crew and passenger
manifest reporting requirements prior to planning any flights across the
U.S. borders. More information can be found at the U.S Customs and Border
Protection website:
http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/travel/pleasure_boats/private_flyers/
Pilots are also advised to register their information with the CBP eAPIS
website and begin using the system now for international flights even prior
to the May 18, 2009 deadline. Information on how to register with eAPIS can
be found at:
