Manifest Modernization Act of 2025
The Manifest Modernization Act of 2025 updates requirements for cargo manifests on vessels, vehicles, and aircraft entering the United States. It mandates that public disclosures include the standard tariff code for cargo, the country of origin, and the last country the cargo was transported through. This affects carriers like shipping companies, airlines, and trucking firms transporting goods into the U.S. The bill also clarifies that "aircraft" includes military and public aircraft, with changes taking effect 30 days after enactment.
