Border Security and Blockchain Technology Act

This bill requires U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to implement a public blockchain platform within 18 months to modernize border security operations. It mandates using blockchain for real-time verification of travel documents, tracking goods through customs, managing personnel deployment, and enabling secure data sharing between federal agencies like CBP and Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The system aims to enhance security through tamper-proof records, improve efficiency by reducing manual processes, and increase transparency in border control. CBP must report to Congress on implementation progress and annual operations, with the platform designed to integrate existing systems like biometric data and visa information.
