Trusted Traveler Programs

Trusted Traveler Programs (TTP) provide modified screening for preapproved members. The programs improve security by being more efficient during screenings, and facilitate legitimate trade and travel at ports of entry. They allow members to use expedited lanes at the U.S. airports, and when crossing international borders.

Use the tool on the Trusted Traveler Programs website to find the right program for you, or to learn more about all of the Trusted Traveler Programs that DHS offers.
