Notices of Arrival

August 9, 2017

Advanced Notices of Arrival are submitted to the US Coast Guard via the NVMC for port state control, security, and immigration purposes. Qualifying arrivals (i.e., those that are required to report to both the NVMC and NBIC) are used to compare with qualifying BWMRs to estimate the rate of compliance with BW reporting requirements.
