Combatting International Drug Trafficking and Human Smuggling Partnership Act of 2025

This bill amends U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) authority to allow CBP officers to conduct joint operations with foreign governments to monitor and disrupt international drug trafficking, human smuggling, and other threats (like terrorism) entering the U.S. It directly affects CBP personnel operating abroad and partner governments. Key provisions include authorizing CBP to provide support like threat monitoring, emergency humanitarian aid (e.g., search and rescue), and law enforcement training in foreign countries, while establishing a claims process for incidents involving CBP operations overseas. Claims must be filed within two years of an incident, and the authority to pay such claims expires five years after the bill’s enactment.
