Comptroller General

More Can Be Done

To Speed The Entry Of

International Travelers



Unnecessary delays in the inspection of trav-
elers entering the United States can and
should be eliminated. Immigration, Customs,
and Agriculture have agreed to adopt a
one-stop inspection process, which should
reduce delays in the time-consuming clear-
ance process.

However, the one-stop procedure will be
more effective if inspection policies are
changed so that passengers undergo primary
inspections before they claim their baggage
and hand baggage is examined on a selective
basis.

The U.S. approach to one-stop inspection is
based solely on the willingness of the agen-
cies to cooperate; this has been a problem in
the past. If lack of cooperation causes the
current effort to implement one-stop inspec-
tions to fail, there are alternatives which
should be considered.
