Border Airport Fairness Act of 2025

HR 2962, the Border Airport Fairness Act of 2025, designates specific airports near the U.S. northern or southern borders as official ports of entry. It directly affects airports that are primary airports within 30 miles of the border, connected via formal agreement to a border crossing or seaport within 30 miles, and meet U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s established criteria for port designation. The bill’s key provision removes user fees under the Trade and Tariff Act of 1984 for these designated airports. This change streamlines border operations by treating eligible airports as formal entry points without additional fees.
