Clearing Customs by App: CBP ROAM © Sam Landsman

The process for clearing into the U.S. by water has changed (you can still do it the old way if you prefer), and it's WAY better. Customs and Border Protection has a new app called CBP ROAM. We just tried it on our way back from Victoria, and it's awesome!

Here's the key information: The app is free. Download it on iOS or Android and follow the prompts to set it up (set it up before you plan on using it). You'll need your login.gov credentials (or to make a new account).
