U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is responsible for border management and control, combining customs, immigration, border security, and agricultural protection. They manage the following programs at Boston Logan International Airport.

Know Before You Go

If you are a U.S. citizen planning to travel abroad, you must comply with the document requirements for that country. CBP offers a variety of resources for travelers to review before they leave.
More Information

Travelers should be aware of the laws and regulations of the country to which they plan to travel. Laws differ from country to country, including those related to marijuana which remains illegal in many countries. Violations of these laws may subject travelers to the civil and/or criminal penalties of those countries.

At U.S. Ports of Entry, Customs and Border Protection enforces U.S. federal law related to marijuana, which may result in seizure, fines and/or arrest and may affect admissibility into the U.S.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has coordinated with several international airlines at Boston Logan International Airport to implement a new biometric self-boarding program on some departing flights out of Terminal E.

Similar biometric self-boarding systems are also in use by airlines at more than a dozen U.S. airports, as well as in the U.K., Australia, and other overseas airports.

U.S. citizens, Canadian citizens, elderly passengers, and children will have the option to opt out of the program. More information.
