  2. Immigration Rule Enhanced Border Security and Visa Entry Reform Act of 2002 (EBSA) Signed into Law May 14, 2002 Required Electronic Transmission of Passenger and Crew Data by January 1st 2003 under Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) January 3, 2003, published rule defining the requirements and the timing. March 3rd 2003 US Customs & Border Protection (USCBP) formed and assumed responsibility Industry appealed for INS/CBP to pursue a single window for information with US Coast Guard (USCG) EBSA

  8. The Carrier is Responsible for Data Integrity. The carrier collecting the information is responsible for comparing the travel document presented by the passenger or crew member with the travel document information it is transmitting to CBP in accordance with this section in order to ensure that the information is correct, the document appears to be valid for travel purposes, and the passenger or crew member is the person to whom the travel document was issued. Penalty for failure to comply $1000 per person Knowingly providing incorrect information = Jail! Data Integrity

  9. February 2nd, 2005 US Department of Homeland Security issues a press release describing the newly released option to file 96 Hour Notice of Arrival and Departure via electronic means. Effectively, three electronic options are provided: On Line, via the USCG NVMC web site Off Line, using the new “Infopath” template Off Line, using the new “XML Schema” The Rule belongs to USCBP, the system belongs to USCG Paper I-418 Still Required on Arrival Approved Transmission Methods

  10. Most ships do not have internet access Requires 1.5 to 2 hours to enter data for one port call. Does not support multiple port calls or multiple berths. Each crew entry requires fourteen data elements, but only three or four print for verification. Does not support use of same data by multiple entities Lacking security On LineNVMC web site

  11. Works “Off Line” Requires up to date PC and Operating System Incompatibility with systems advertised as OK Downloadable template from USCG Does not support multiple port calls or multiple berths. Problem fields and errors Port of Debarkation Charterer Date Format USCG suggested workarounds Lacking Security InfoPath

  12. Best option? Works “Off Line” Developers can design user friendly tools May support multiple ports with appropriate programming USCG published final specs. June 2nd. EDI link still not operational XML Schema

  13. XML Schema Excel front end Familiar Tool for Ships Staff Self Extracting File Backwards compatible to “97” Drop Down Menu’s reduce operator error Small file size Automated Handling High Degree of Data Validation Service Center with skilled operators to intervene and problem solve ISS Option
