CBP describes APIS as the system supplying officers with passenger and crew manifest data before arrival and departure 1. Its overview, last modified on 3 August 2026, links the eAPIS submission portal and technical transmission guidance. It distinguishes carriers and vendors that completed testing from the government programme itself 1. This record does not assign the government system to every certified transmission provider. The overview does not identify a prime development contract, price, signing date, duration or revenue share. Those fields remain not published.
