    Type:Notice
    Citation:90 FR 12752
    Reading Time:about 22 minutes

    The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is launching a Voluntary Self-Reported Exit (VSRE) Pilot to collect facial images from certain non-U.S. citizens leaving the United States. This pilot, starting on March 19, 2025, will use a mobile app to gather and verify biometrics, aiming to improve the accuracy of entry-exit records by using facial recognition and geolocation technology. The pilot will help CBP evaluate the effectiveness and user-friendliness of this technology, potentially creating a more automated and secure system for tracking exits. Participation is voluntary, focusing on those subject to the I-94 form requirements.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. Customs and Border Protection is starting a test program where some people leaving the U.S. can use a phone app to take a picture of their face to check out more easily. This helps them see if this new way works well for tracking who comes and goes.

    Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:86 FR 8878
    Reading Time:about 2 minutes

    The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is re-opening the comment period for a proposed rule about collecting biometric data, such as facial images, from non-U.S. citizens entering and leaving the United States. This extension allows people to give feedback for an extra 30 days until March 12, 2021. The rule aims to improve how the CBP verifies identities using biometric technology, like facial recognition, for better accuracy and security. U.S. citizens can choose not to participate in this biometric verification process.

    Simple Explanation

    The CBP wants to take pictures and other special details from people who are not from the U.S. when they come in and out of the country to make sure they know who they really are. They are asking people to share their thoughts on this idea until March 12, 2021.
