Site Editorial Commentary：ROAM (Reporting Offsite Arrival-Mobile) from U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

The official CBP ROAM (Reporting Offsite Arrival – Mobile) app, formerly known as OARS, provided by U.S. Customs and Border Protection, streamlines the arrival reporting process for pleasure boaters and other eligible travelers entering the United States at remote locations. This innovative app allows users to efficiently submit their arrival information online, eliminating the need for in-person reporting in many instances.

Specifically, pleasure boaters who are not enrolled in a Trusted Traveler Program, Local Boater Option, or the I-68 program and are typically required to report in person, may now be eligible for a convenient video inspection through the app. This feature significantly reduces processing times and enhances the overall entry experience.

Key features include the ability to:
* Create a trip by adding traveler details.
* Specify your mode of travel and location.
* Provide necessary contact information.

Once a trip is submitted, users may receive push notifications prompting them to initiate a video chat with a CBP Officer to finalize their entry reporting into the United States. This real-time interaction ensures accurate and efficient processing.

*Disclaimer:* Please note that this is a pilot version intended for use in specific, limited areas. Users are advised to contact their local Port of Entry for guidance and to confirm eligibility for using the CBP ROAM app in their region.

*Technical Requirement:* This application requires an Android device with operating system Android 4.4 (KitKat) or later.
