October 29, 2020 - U.S. Customs and Border Protection in partnership with
Los Angeles World Airports, introduce 'Simplified Arrival', an enhanced
international arrival process that uses facial biometrics to automate the
manual document checks that are already required for admission into the
United States. The 'Simplified Arrival' took place at the Tom Bradley
terminal.
Amidst COVID-19, and in support of
travel recovery efforts, this process provides travelers
with a touch-less process that further secures and
streamlines international arrivals, fulfills a longstanding
congressional mandate, and protects the privacy of all
travelers.
