TSA certifies cargo screening facilities located throughout the United States to screen cargo prior to providing it to airlines for transport on passenger flights. See 49 CFR part 1549. The Certified Cargo Screening Program (CCSP) is a practical supply chain solution, which provides security while ensuring the flow of commerce.

Air cargo plays a critical role in the U.S. economy, and the security of the air cargo system is at the core of TSA’s mission. The movement of air cargo is complex and supported by a sophisticated supply chain with a wide range of government and industry stakeholders.

On June 30, 2021, TSA mandated 100% screening of air cargo originating in the United States and destined for non-U.S. locations that is transported on all-cargo aircraft. • TSA approved amendments for Impractical to Screen (ITS) cargo to assist industry in meeting the June 30, 2021 regulatory requirement.

2023年11月13日 · The Known Shipper Management System (KSMS) is a database of shippers approved by the TSA for transporting cargo on passenger aircraft.

2024年8月30日 · The Transport Security Administration (TSA) has provided sudden new mandates on additional security measures for cargo transiting through or with final destination to the US.

2021年7月1日 · Effective June 30, 2021, cargo transported on cargo-only aircrafts must be screened before loading. This comes as Transportation Security Administration (TSA) updates the U.S. cargo screening requirements to align with international aviation security standards laid out by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).

TSA’s regulation of the air cargo industry includes requirements for security threat assessments on individuals who have or are applying for unescorted access to air cargo, that are principals and owners of companies applying for TSA certification, or have air cargo screening-related duties.

National Cargo Security Program recognition remains key to achieving the 100% screening requirement for international inbound cargo, providing benefits to TSA, partner countries, and industry.
