CBP DEC. NO. 21-19
RIN 1651-AB18
AUTOMATION OF CBP FORM I-418 FOR VESSELS
AGENCY: U.S. Customs and Border Protection, DHS.
ACTION: Interim final rule; solicitation of comments.
SUMMARY: This rule amends the regulations in title 8 and title 19
of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) regarding the submission of
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Form I-418, Passenger
List-Crew List (Form I-418) in paper form. Currently, the master or
agent of every commercial vessel arriving in the United States, with
limited exceptions, must submit Form I-418, along with certain in-
formation regarding longshore work, in paper form to CBP at the port
where immigration inspection is performed. Most commercial vessel
operators are also required to submit a paper Form I-418 to CBP at
the final U.S. port prior to departing for a foreign place. DHS is
modifying the applicable regulations to provide for the electronic
submission of Form I-418. Under this rule, vessel operators will be
required to electronically submit the data elements on Form I-418 to
CBP through an electronic data interchange system (EDI) approved
by CBP in lieu of submitting a paper form. This will streamline vessel
arrival and departure processes by providing for the electronic sub-
mission of the information collected on the Form I-418, eliminating
redundant data submissions, simplifying vessel inspections, and au-
tomating recordkeeping.
DATES:
Effective date: This rule is effective February 28, 2022.
Comments due date: Comments must be received on or before Feb-
ruary 28, 2022.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by docket
number, by the following method:
