TSA amends certified cargo screening programme


As published in the Federal Register, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has announced changes to the certified cargo screening programme that will enable more shippers to enter the secure supply chain.

 

On 30 June 2021, TSA mandated that all air cargo originating in the USA and destined for non-US locations be screened or secured before being loaded onto an aircraft to meet international standards and to address potential threats to aviation.

 

TSA is actively encouraging indirect air carriers, manufacturing facilities, assembly facilities, shippers, warehouses, and distribution centres to apply for and become a certified cargo screening facility (CCSF). This means that they will be certified by TSA to assemble, pack, secure and tender cargo for air transport in a secured manner, where no additional screening will be required. (cj)
