Agency Implements Change in Documentation Requirements for Border Crossing 

As of January 31, 2008, the Department of Homeland Security is implementing a change in the documentation required to enter the United States via land or sea port, ending the long-established practice of oral declarations of citizenship. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) agents will no longer be permitted to accept a person’s oral identification of citizenship when they deem further documentation is unnecessary but instead are required to view a document to prove citizenship for each traveler, such as a birth certificate.
