DIS Guide Provides List of Documents Planned to be Supported
The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Document Image System (DIS) implementation guide provides a full list of documents that are planned to be supported by DIS, said CBP sources. The implementation guide list differs from the list provided as part of Federal Register notice announcing the first phase of DIS testing. The documents listed within the Federal Register notice are only the documents supported within that first phase, said the CBP sources. CBP will be publishing additional Federal Register Notices that will announce the next series of documents that will be made available when ready to receive those forms.
