What is CBP?
The U.S. Customs is divided into two parts, namely the US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The establishment of CBP marks the first time in U.S. history that a single agency is responsible for the unified management of people and goods entering U.S. ports.
What are the main responsibilities of CBP?
1. CBP’s primary mission is to prevent terrorists and terrorist weapons from entering the United States. To this end, CBP will focus on enhancing the security of the U.S. border and ports, and expand the U.S. security zone beyond the U.S. geographical borders, thereby turning the U.S. border from the first line of defense into the last line of defense.
2. CBP's main responsibilities include: arresting illegal immigrants and seizing drugs and other contraband, protecting agricultural and economic interests from harmful animals and plants and diseases, protecting U.S. commerce from intellectual property infringement, regulating and facilitating international trade, collecting import tariffs, and enforcing U.S. trade laws.
